Parent contact information prohibited from being designated as publicly available directory information.

HF 101 prohibits Minnesota schools from listing parent contact information (like home addresses, phone numbers, or email addresses) as "publicly available directory information." This directly affects parents, as schools can no longer automatically share their personal contact details with the public without explicit consent. The bill amends Minnesota Statutes §13.32 by removing parent contact information from the definition of directory information, requiring schools to treat it as private data instead. Exceptions exist only for temporary sharing with school referendum committees during election periods (90 days prior to voting), with strict limits on use and destruction after elections.
