10. THEY['VE] GOT EYES IN THE SKY: HOW THE FAMILY EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS AND PRIVACY ACT GOVERNS BODY CAMERA USE IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

Author

PIERCE WEST, SARAH

Subjects
FAMILY Educational Rights & Privacy Act of 1974 (U.S.), WEARABLE video devices, PUBLIC schools, SCHOOL records -- Law & legislation, EDUCATION, UNITED States. Elementary & Secondary Education Act of 1965
Abstract

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) is the premier federal law that protects student privacy rights in public schools. In the face of increasing technology, courts have struggled to determine what information qualifies as a student's "education record" protected under FERPA. Body cameras are being increasingly utilized throughout the country. School districts have contemplated using body cameras within schools, and some districts could soon allow school administrators to use them in disciplinary proceedings against students. This Comment argues that FERPA should govern the use of body camera footage within public schools, and that such footage should qualify as an education record due to its wealth of personally identifiable information and its use by school personnel. This Comment also discusses the incompatibility of certain state open records laws with FERPA and concludes that disclosure of the body camera education records will depend on individual jurisdictional interpretations of FERPA as binding law.

11. "Serviam": A Historical Case Study of Leadership in Transition in Urban Catholic Schools in Northeast Ohio

Author

Abstract

The purpose of this historical case study was to explore, through the lens of knowledge transfer, answers to the following two questions: how did the Sister-educators from one community in Northeast Ohio prepare themselves for leadership, and when it became clear that the future of their urban school depended on transitioning to lay leadership, how did Sister-principals prepare their religious communities and their school communities for that change. This qualitative study focuses on six members of one active, engaged, service-based community which has supported schools Northeast Ohio for over a century. The research revealed that a successful Sister-to-laity leadership transition will have its foundation in charismatic love, encourage faith-filled mentoring of faculty and students, honor the mission of the founding community, and support an overarching leadership culture of magnanimity to all stakeholders. This model can be employed in other educational and nonprofit settings where non-hierarchical servant leadership would be an effective approach.
