OPTING-OUT
Section 9528 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 2001 (No Child Left Behind) mandates that school districts must provide the contact information (names, addresses and telephone numbers) of juniors and seniors to the military upon request unless an Opt Out form is signed and returned to the school.
Students must Opt Out every year.
LAUSD deadline:
Opt Out forms must be returned by October 28, 2011.
