On PAR’s Resources

On PAR offers many resources and avenues of support for parents, children, and community members. Here are some ways to engage with On PAR’s mission!


Accessing Information and Reporting Discrimination

FOIL (Freedom of Information Law)

“The Freedom of Information Law (commonly referred to as FOIL) requires school districts to allow public access to certain official documents and records. Please note that student records, protected by the federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) are exempt and cannot be accessed under FOIL requests.” (information taken directly from ACSD FOIL Requests)

Submitting an Incident Under the Office of the New York State Attorney General

DASA (Dignity For All Students Act)

“New York State’s Dignity for All Students Act (DASA) seeks to provide the State’s students with a
