  • The Bloomfield Central School District is committed to protecting the privacy and security of each and every student’s data. Parents should be aware of the following rights they have concerning their child’s data.

  • The Board of Education recognizes its responsibility to enact policies that provide privacy for student, teacher, and principal data in accordance with the law. This is particularly relevant in the context of the administration of student data which is collected, surveys that collect personal information, the disclosure of personal information for marketing purposes, and in conducting physical exams.
