Special Education Cameras

On the request of an eligible parent, staff member, principal, assistant principal, or the Board of Trustees, the District must provide video equipment, including video cameras with audio recording capabilities, to campuses in accordance with Section 29.002, Texas Education Code, 10 T.A.C. 103.1301, and Board Policy EHBAF. Campuses that receive equipment must place, operate, and maintain video cameras in certain self-contained classrooms or other special education settings.

Video surveillance is solely for the purpose of promoting student safety.  Regular or continual monitoring of video recordings is prohibited by law.  Video recordings are confidential by law and my only be accessed or viewed by certain individuals under very limited circumstances as defined by the Texas Education Code.

An approved request for video surveillance is only valid for the current school year. Operation of the requested video camera(s) shall be discontinued at the end of the current school year and will not continue during the following school year unless a person eligible to make a request for the next school year submits a new request.
