PSEO Families

When students are taking classes through PSEO, federal policy on privacy can leave families feeling out of the loop. To keep everyone informed, we’ve gathered resources so families can help make PSEO a successful and worthwhile experience.

• PSEO Handbook
• FERPA – Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act
• PSEO Virtual Kickoff

PSEO Handbook

We encourage every family to download and read the handbook with their student. It covers many of the common questions and concerns students and parents have about PSEO.

FERPA – Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act

This federal law regulates how parents can access a student’s education records. When a student enters a secondary institution at any age, these rights transfer from parent to student. Students who want their parents to receive academic or financial information can fill out our authorization to release student information form.

Attend/Watch PSEO Virtual Kickoff

All PSEO students and families are encouraged to attend our virtual event where we go over common questions and concerns. Our goal is to help students start the semester strong and help ease first-time PSEO students find their footing. RSVP information for this event is provided after meeting with an advisor. A recording of this year’s kickoff can be viewed below.
