This teacher has committed a
#FERPA violation.

He made a fake ICE deportation tip line. Then a kindergarten teacher called. A Nashville comedian’s deportation hotline, set up as a joke, has gone viral among viewers who say it shows the “banality of evil personified” in the U.S. immigration crackdown.

The teacher states she went into school records prior to making this call.
That’s a #FERPA violation.

Outrage after border agents subject detained gay Vermont superintendent to hours of ‘psychological terror’ Local officials and national lawmakers are expressing anger over U.S. citizen Wilmer Chavarria’s “deeply disturbing” encounter while returning from vacation with his husband.

www.advocate.com/news/vermont... Chavarria said CBP agents attempted to access his school-issued computer, which contains sensitive student data. He refused to provide his passwords without consulting the district’s legal counsel… #CBP continued to refuse. #FERPA 🧑‍🏫

Wtf were they gonna do with student and school district records? I have to wonder if he was targeted specifically because he has access to so much confidential data? Anyway #FERPA is a federal law protecting student information and he knows that.
