<p>All I can say is that it is about time! </p>
<p>The issue is very clear; the scores never belonged to the high school and the information they copy/paste and retransmit is not official. In addition to violating privacy rights, the high school cannot be held liable for errors or omissions. </p>
<p>I hope this is a first step towards getting universal policies that clearly mandate the schools to act in the best interest of the students and acknowledge that student records are exactly that … the record of students! IMHO, violations should be subject to stiff financial penalties. </p>
<p>Unfortunately, no penalties could ever be imposed on sheer stupidity, incompetence, and obnoxious behavior.</p>
<p>It would be wonderful if high school did report their own grades correctly. Why in the world did anyone ever think it was a good idea for the high school to report outside test scores?</p>
