Notice Regarding Directory Information and Parent Response
Regarding Release of Student Information
State law requires the district to give you the following information:
Certain information about district students is considered directory information and will be released to anyone who follows the
procedures for requesting the information unless the parent or guardian objects to the release of the directory information
regarding their student. If you do not want VAISD to disclose directory information from your child’s educational records without
your prior written consent you must notify the district in writing within ten school days of your child’s first day of instruction for
the current school year.
This means that the district must give certain personal information (called “directory information”) about your child to any person
who requests it, unless you have told the district in writing not to do so. In addition, you have the right to tell the district that it
may or may not, use certain personal information about your child for specific school sponsored purposes. The district is
providing you with this form to communicate your wishes.
I request that directory information for my child NOT be released as checked below:
_______ Withhold directory information from all VAISD. If you check this choice, we will not be able to post your child’s
picture on our school site, school social media pages, local newspaper, yearbook or honor award lists.
_______ Withhold directory information from all outside agencies and outside organizations.

(print name of parent/guardian)
I represent that I have the authority to consent to drug/alcohol testing of my child. I understand Van Alstyne Independent School District’s
policy regarding illegal substances use and participation in VAISD sponsored extracurricular activities. I understand that it is the practice of
VAISD to conduct drug/alcohol tests for the purpose of carrying out this policy prior to student participation or continued participation in
extracurricular activities.
I understand that my child cannot be compelled to give a urine sample. I understand that if he/she gives a urine sample it will be tested for drugs
and/or alcohol. I understand that the giving of a urine sample, when requested by VAISD, is a condition of my child’s continued participation in
extracurricular activities. I understand that if a test of my child’s urine sample reveals an unexplained presence of a drug or alcohol, the VAISD
may take action against him/her up to and including termination from any participation in extracurricular activities, as specified in the policy. An
exception will be made for the use of legally prescribed medications taken under the direct supervision of a physician. Based on my
understanding of the above, I hereby authorize Accu-Chem Laboratories and other trained personnel, to collect urine samples from my child for
the purpose of testing for the presence of drugs and/or alcohol.
I further authorize the officers, employees, and agents of Accu-Chem Laboratories to communicate my child’s drug/alcohol test results both
orally and in writing to each other, and me, and VAISD administrators and personnel responsible for administering the testing program and
extracurricular activities, and to communicate to me prior to any VAISD administrative proceedings or disciplinary actions. I understand that no
physician/patient relationship is established by the collection of this urine sample by Accu-Chem Lab, and that no privilege of confidentiality will
attach to these test results.
I agree to allow my child to participate in this program as: (check one)
