Records And Transcripts Retention

The Florida Department of Education does not receive or maintain any private school records or transcripts.

Private schools are required to notify the Department of Education when they open, change locations, or close.

Section 1002.42(3)(b), F.S. requires a private school that has terminated the operation of an education or training program to either transfer all permanent information contained in student records to the public school district in which the private school was located or, to the principal office of a private school system or association of which the private school is a member.
