Pursuant to applicable law, Independent School District No. 700 hereby gives
notice to parents of secondary students and eligible secondary students of their
rights regarding release of information to military recruiting officers. The school
district must release the names, addresses, and home telephone numbers of
secondary students to military recruiting officers within 60 days after the date of
the request. Data released to military recruiting officers under this provision may
be used only for the purpose of providing information to students about military
service, state and federal veterans’ education benefits, and other career and
educational opportunities provided by the military and cannot be further
disseminated to any other person except personnel of the recruiting services of the
armed forces.
SHOULD THE PARENT OF A STUDENT OR THE ELIGIBLE STUDENT SO DESIRE,
ANY OR ALL OF THE LISTED INFORMATION WILL NOT BE DISCLOSED TO
MILITARY RECRUITING OFFICERS WITHOUT PRIOR CONSENT.
IN ORDER TO REFUSE THE RELEASE OF THIS INFORMATION WITHOUT PRIOR
CONSENT, THE PARENT OR ELIGIBLE STUDENT MUST MAKE A WRITTEN

Notice: Refusal to release the above information to military recruiting officers alone does not
affect the School District’s release of directory information to the public, including military
recruiting officers. In order to make any directory information about a student private, the
procedures contained in the Directory Information section of this notice also must be
followed. If you do not want your child’s or eligible student’s directory information released
to military recruiting officers, you also must notify the school district that you do not want this
directory information released to any member of the public, including military recruiting
officers.
