The Lake Tahoe Unified School District Board of Trustees passed the Safe and Inclusive School Environment Resolution on February 13, 2025. It is important that all of our scholars are in school every day, learning in a supportive and safe environment.

Every Child Belongs: Understanding Student Educational Rights in California
All children in California have the following rights:
- Right to a Free Public Education: All children have a right to equal access to free public education, regardless of their or their parents'/guardians' immigration status.
- Information Required for School Enrollment: Schools must accept a variety of documents from the student's parent or guardian to demonstrate proof of child's age or residency and schools are not required to keep a copy of the document used as proof of a child's age.
- Confidentiality of Personal Information: Federal and state laws protect student education records and personal information. These laws generally require that schools obtain written consent from parents or guardians before releasing student information, unless the release of information is for educational purposes, is already public, or is in response to a court order or subpoena.
This information along with other rights and important guidelines is available in English and Spanish.
