AN ACT making changes to the unique pupil identification system.
Be it Enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened:
224:1 Unique Pupil Identification; Availability. Amend RSA 193-E:5, I(b) to read as follows:
(b) The random number generator shall make available to each early childhood program, district, or postsecondary institution a unique pupil identifier for each pupil pursuing an education in a New Hampshire early childhood program, district, or postsecondary institution. The unique pupil identifier itself shall not permit pupil identification within a [sub-category] subcategory including, but not limited to, early childhood program, district, postsecondary institution, sex, age, grade, or county of residence.
224:2 Unique Pupil Identification; Access. Amend RSA 193-E:5, I(d) to read as follows:
(d)(1) Access to the random number generator shall be limited to an early childhood program director or designee, a district superintendent or designee, or a postsecondary institution registrar or designee, and only for pupils pursuing an education in that early childhood program, district, or postsecondary institution.
(2) A parent or legal guardian shall, upon request made in person to the early child program director, school district superintendent for the district which the child last attended, or postsecondary institution registrar, have access to their child’s unique pupil identifier and their child’s data maintained in the data warehouse. A person who is 18 years of age or older shall, upon request made in person to the early child program director, school district superintendent for the district which the person last attended, or postsecondary institution registrar, have access to their unique pupil identifier and their data maintained in the data warehouse.
(3) Any person who knowingly violates [this provision] the provisions of this subparagraph is guilty of a class B felony and may be subject to involuntary termination of employment.
