Military Recruiter Opt-Out Notification
2012-2013 School Year
The No Child Left Behind Act, Section 9528, requires that school district to provide military recruiters, upon request, with the name, address and telephone number of each secondary school student unless the student or student’s parent has advised the district that this information is not to be disclosed.
In order to have your student’s directory information withheld, please note the following:
-
A request to withhold directory information must be in writing. You may use the form provided or appropriate forms from other sources. A request may also be hand-written.
-
This request will apply only to the release of directory information to military recruiters or other recruiters. Requests to suppress directory information used for other purposes (such as student publications, colleges and universities, class rings, and yearbooks) are not covered by this notification. Such requests must be filed directly with the school.
-
Requests for suppression of directory information will be maintained until notification requesting a change is received.
-
Parents and students may sign this form. The parent signature must be on request for students who are under the age of 18. For students who are 18 years of age or older, the student must sign the request.
Written requests should be submitted as early in the school year as possible as directory information requests allowed under NCLB can be made at any time. Requests should be sent directly to either Elisabeth Hudnutt, Capital High School Principal, Steve Thennis, Helena High School Principal, Frank Jobe, PAL Principal or Kent Kultgen, Superintendent of Schools.
