Directory information or class lists of student names and/or addresses shall not be
distributed without the consent of the parent or legal guardian of the student or by the
student who has attained majority status.

Bacon Academy shall provide the same directory information and on-campus recruiting
opportunities to representatives of the armed forces of the United States of America
and State Armed Services as are offered to nonmilitary recruiters, recruiters for
commercial concerns and recruiters representing institutions of higher education.

Military recruiters or institutions of higher education shall have access to secondary
school students’ names, addresses, and telephone listings unless a secondary student,
or the parent or legal guardian of the student, requests that such information not be
released without prior written parental consent. The Colchester Public Schools shall
notify parents of the option to make such request and shall comply with any request
received. ​A student eighteen years of age or older, rather than his/her
parent/guardian, may request in writing that such information not be released
without his/her prior written permission.

The Board shall also provide full access for the recruitment of students by regional
vocational technical schools, regional vocational agricultural centers, inter-district
magnet schools, charter schools and inter-district student attendance programs,
provided such recruitment is not for the purpose of interscholastic athletic competition.
The Board shall also post information about these school options on its website.

The school administrator shall make the determination of the location, date, and time of
the recruitment meetings. Administration reserves the right to deny such meeting if it is
determined that the meeting will interfere with the proper and orderly operation of the
school.

Any person or organization denied the rights accorded under this policy shall have the
right to request a review of the decision by the Board of Education at a regularly
scheduled meeting by filing a written request with the Superintendent of Schools.
