The page provides a log of parent approval/denial of authorizations, prohibitions and waivers that are presented during Online Enrollment/Data Confirmation, such as allowing student photos to be used, allowing military access to test scores, etc. The log can also include parent acceptance of school policies and other documents.

Records can also be added and updated from this page.


For Texas users, this page is also used to maintain parental permission for participation in Bil/ESL (Type = 4). These fields can be updated from the Language Assessment page under BIL/ESL Placement Authorization as well.
