Ohio Senate Bill 29
What are the requirements of Ohio Senate Bill 29 (SB29)?
SB29 aims to protect student data privacy and ensure transparency in how schools handle student information. SB29 impacts how schools collect and use student data, including data from school-issued devices. It requires increased communication with families about technology use and outlines regulations on what districts can monitor and share. For more details, view the information on our Student Data Privacy page.
How does SB29 impact the use of technology in the classroom?
Technology remains an integral part of the classroom and involves leveraging the use of digital tools to foster an environment that empowers learners and supports instruction. Staff simply needs to be mindful about how they use student data, use only district-approved resources, and adhere to the guidelines for requesting the use of a new digital resource.
