Cite as Haw. Code R. § 8-34-1
Schools maintain extensive information about
students for legitimate educational use as instruction, guidance,
counseling and research. However, if released or used improperly, the
information may intrude upon the privacy of students and their
families. Therefore, it is imperative that there be recognition of
the school's needs for relevant data for the student's benefit and
the protection of an individual's rights of privacy. In the event of
a conflict regarding confidentiality of education records
specifically relating to children who are handicapped or are
suspected of being handicapped, section 8-36-7 shall prevail. [Eff.
