School Admittance Data Collection
Data collected during the admissions process is done with the consent of the individuals providing the information and protected with the utmost discretion. Individuals under the age of 18 require the consent of their parent/guardian before we collect any of their information. Loop ISD collects only the data necessary for the admissions process for the purposes of evaluation and contact. This data is collected through applications gathered from our website, our third party student information service, or SIS, ASCENDER, other third parties such as previous schools or doctors offices, and via communication with our admissions department.
Personally identifiable information that we collect can include but is not limited to: name, gender, race/ethnicity, date of birth, parentage, addresses, phone numbers, financial status, medical records, and educational history. Educational history can include test scores, extra-curricular activities, disciplinary information, and academic performance history. Parents/Guardians are also required to supply information regarding employment, contact information, and marital status.
This information is integral for the admission of students to our facility and can not be accomplished without it. No information is shared without the consent of the individual and their parents/guardians.
Employees and applicants of Loop ISD will have their names, contact information, education, and work history collected as well as being subject to a background check.
