Bill > SF1613

This bill amends Minnesota's data privacy laws to allow schools to release a student's home address to school-age child care programs for the specific purpose of mailing program information. Currently, schools are prohibited from designating a student's home address as directory information and generally cannot share such personal contact details. The new provision creates a narrow exception that permits schools to share home addresses with school-age child care programs, as defined in Minnesota Statutes section 142B.01, subdivision 26, but with strict limitations. The bill requires that the receiving child care program may not further distribute the student's address or use the information for any purpose other than mailing program information. This change aims to help school-age child care programs communicate directly with families about their services while maintaining student privacy protections. The bill preserves existing restrictions on sharing student contact information and ensures that any shared data is used only for its intended purpose of informing families about available child care programs.
