20-2-2150. Educational records
In the event that official education records cannot be released to the parents or legal guardian for the purpose of transfer, a local school system shall accept a complete set of unofficial educational records prepared by the sending school and furnished to the parent or legal guardian. Upon receipt of such unofficial education records, the local school system shall enroll and appropriately place the student based on the information provided in the unofficial records pending validation by the official records, as quickly as possible. Simultaneously with the enrollment and conditional placement of the student, the local school system shall request the student's official education record from the school in the sending state.
