Transcripts and Student Records

The school maintains a permanent record file for each student which includes academic, health, disciplinary, and attendance records. Material in each student's file is confidential and shall be accessible only by permission of the school administration. Information on the student's permanent record will be given out to the following:

1. Parents and students upon written request of the parents or through a Parchment order.

2. Prospective employers upon receipt of written parent/student authorization.

3. Colleges, universities, and military services upon the student's written request.

4. Another school because of withdrawal or transfer upon receipt of written parental authorization.

Records will not be automatically transferred, but must be requested.

Diplomas and report cards will not be released if accounts are not current. The records are considered property of Liberty Christian School.

In accord with Indiana law (I.C. 20-33-7), Liberty Christian School provides both custodial and non-custodial parents equal access to the educational records of the child they have in common. This means that both custodial and non-custodial parents are afforded full access to FACTS Family Portal and to report cards unless: the child’s tuition account is not in good standing (in which case neither parent shall have access) or the school has been provided a complete and officially sealed copy of a current court order indicating that the non-custodial parent is not permitted to have such access.

Pursuant to the LCS student enrollment contract, all student transcripts and diplomas will be withheld until the student’s financial account has achieved a zero balance. LCS will release to a receiving school, regardless of account balance, a verbal list of which courses a student has completed with a passing grade.
