Data security

Is Student Data Safe During Country Walk School Electronics Recycling?

Under FERPA, schools must protect student records from unauthorized disclosure, including data on retired devices. Per NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2 guidelines, media sanitization requires verification of purge-level overwrite or physical destruction before devices leave institutional control. STS provides certified destruction supporting both standards.

Hard drive destruction is essential when Country Walk schools retire electronics containing student data. According to IBM's Cost of a Data Breach Report, the average breach costs $4.88 million, and improperly disposed school devices represent an avoidable exposure. An undestroyed drive is a FERPA liability, and a per-device certificate of destruction closes the audit gap for district compliance officers.

STS delivers destruction aligned to NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2 for Country Walk educational institutions. School technology directors typically schedule end-of-year bulk pickups coordinated around academic calendars, which is standard for STS engagements with MDCPS and SW Miami-Dade schools.

Why the paperwork matters

An undocumented school device is a FERPA finding waiting to happen

Off-site destruction is compliant, and for most school volumes it is the right call. But between the school loading dock and the processing floor there is a period where custody is documented rather than observed.

For devices holding student records, teacher credentials, or administrative data, MDCPS technology directors and district IT managers require serial-level tracking throughout that window. Per-device certificates of destruction are the evidence that closes the compliance gap.
