Communications

Organizations and/or any member of the public can request information about students attending Roseville Area Schools. “Directory information,” as it is known, is defined by Roseville Area Schools as the student’s name, parent/guardian name, grade, participation in officially recognized activities and sports, weight and height of members of athletic teams, dates of enrollment, degrees and awards received, the most recent educational institution attended by the student, and pictures for district-approved publications, district-approved webpages, district-approved social media, local media, and local cablecasts.

The district’s policy complies with state and federal laws, which require us to release this information upon request. However, you have the right to deny the release of directory information, except to school officials or as provided under federal law.  Please know that if you choose to keep directory information private, names will not be available for any purpose. In such cases, for example, students would not be listed in school programs, yearbooks, publicized honor roll lists, and classroom directories because these documents are considered public domain. Please note the “Opt Out Exemption for Yearbook” on the form.

Military Information Opt Outs

Roseville Area Schools defines Directory Information as student name, parent/guardian name, grade, participation in officially recognized activities and sports, weight and height of members of athletic teams, dates of enrollment, degrees and awards received, and the most recent educational institution attended by the student. The Solomon Amendment is a U.S. federal law that requires public schools to also release student address, phone number, and email address of students age 17 and older to military recruiters.

If you wish to opt your student out of the release of information to military recruiters, please complete the "Directory Information Military Opt Out Request Form" and submit it to the main office at your child's school.
