Is Montessori Compass FERPA Compliant?

Modified on Wed, Apr 8 at 4:09 PM

Yes. Montessori Compass is designed to comply with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), the primary federal law governing the privacy of student education records in the United States.


What This Means for Your School

  • Student data is used only for educational purposes — never for advertising, marketing, or resale
  • Access to student records is restricted to authorized school staff and parents/guardians only
  • All data is encrypted in transit and at rest
  • Schools retain control over their student data at all times

International Compliance

For schools outside the United States, Montessori Compass is also designed with alignment toward GDPR (European Union / EEA) and other applicable international student data protection standards.

Canadian schools are served on separate, Canada-based servers to support data residency requirements.
