The correct answer is A) true.
It is true that FERPA requires schools to provide an annual notification to students and parents. This notice lets parents and eligible students know what their FERPA rights are. The annual notification also must state how to file a complaint with the Department of Education if the school violates any of FERPA’s provisions.
FERPA stands for the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act. It is federal legislation supervised by the Family Policy Compliance Office, as part of the Department of Education of the United States. The act was signed into law in 1974 and allows the post-secondary student to access school records, and also to other entities such as companies and colleges.
