Board authorizes ROC attorneys to negotiate Ed Law 2-d data-privacy agreements
Summary
The Chazy Union Free School District Board on May 13 approved a resolution granting ROC‑designated attorneys authority to negotiate and sign Data Privacy Agreements that comply with New York State Education Law Section 2‑d and related Part 121 regulations, with no new budgetary spending required.
The Chazy Union Free School District Board of Education voted May 13 to authorize attorneys designated by the RIC ONE Risk Operations Center (ROC) to negotiate and approve Data Privacy Agreements (DPAs) for software and technology vendors on behalf of the district.
The resolution — adopted unanimously — specifically references compliance with New York State Education Law Section 2‑d and Part 121 Regulations concerning student personally identifiable information (PII) and certain teacher and principal APPR data. The board’s action directs ROC attorneys to finalize DPAs presented to the district "so as to effectuate the purposes and intent of this resolution," without requiring expenditures beyond those already budgeted.
Board discussion noted the district’s affiliation with a locally based Regional Information Center and the ROC’s role in coordinating with NYSED and related privacy consortia. The resolution text states that ROC partners with the Access4Learning Student Data Privacy Consortium and The Education Cooperative to negotiate Ed Law 2‑d compliant DPAs.
The resolution was moved and seconded during the meeting and recorded as carried unanimously. The board did not identify any additional district funding needs tied to the agreements; implementation will proceed through the ROC’s negotiation process and the routine execution of DPAs once presented to the district.
