This draft was developed by educators, parents, administrators, students, and Office of Overseas Dependents education representatives. It is designed to serve as a guide for the local development of handbooks regarding student rights and responsibilities. The draft, which will be reviewed after recommended revisions are received, is very broad because it must apply to all schools and all communities. It presents statements of student rights and responsibilities under the general headings of access to learning, freedom of expression, student governance, school records, school discipline, relationship with nonschool agencies, and resources.
