Is Student Data Safe During Fish Hawk School Electronics Recycling?
Under FERPA 20 U.S.C. 1232g, schools receiving federal funds must ensure student records on disposed devices are rendered irretrievable.

Certificates of destruction are issued for every device processed.

An undocumented school device is a finding waiting to happen
Off-site destruction is compliant, and for most school volumes it is the right call. But between your loading dock and the processing floor there is a period where custody is documented rather than observed.
For devices holding student records, counseling files, or district financial data, some school IT directors will not accept that window. Serial-level tracking removes the ambiguity and removes in-house disposal methods that fail federal media sanitization requirements while feeling secure.
