No Child Left Behind Opt-Out Form

Most parents are unaware that a federal law called the No Child Left Behind Act contains a provision that requires schools who receive public funding to violate family privacy by handing over personal information about students including names, home addresses and phone numbers to local military recruiters.

The good news is that students over the age of 18 or parents of minors may remove their children from this list by submitting a request in writing to their school administrator.
