Special Education Students Notice
The Nebraska Department of Education Rule 51, Regulations and Standards for Education Programs, requires that school districts destroy all personally identifiable Special Education data maintained on students five years after the completion of the activities for which special education funds were used.
All Special Education records that have been maintained by Wayne Community Schools for 5 years after they were no longer needed are now scheduled to be destroyed. Students with a graduation date of May 2019, or whose services were discontinued in 2019, will have their records destroyed on July 15th, 2024.
Parents and/or students can contact Paula Gemelke at 402-833-1450 to arrange a time to pick up their files. If the school district has not been contacted by July 15th, the school district assumes the right to shred all information of the individual contained in the Special Education file.
