Records Requests, Retention, and Destruction Process

Case managers and therapists are required to keep their working files for at least two years unless they have passed it along to the next therapist/case manager.

The Special Education office retains student files for six years following their exit from special education. After a student has been separated from the special education program for 6 years, a public notice is placed to inform students and families that their records have met the retention period. Any records not claimed within 6 years of the student exiting the special education program will be destroyed.
