SOPPA

SOPPA, or the Student Online Personal Protection Act, is a law passed in Illinois which takes effect July 1st, 2021.  It requires all Illinois school districts to enter into written agreement with online providers offering services targeted at K-12 institutions.  These agreements detail what data is collected and ensure measures have been taken to prevent unauthorized access.
West Carroll is a member of the SDPC (Student Data Privacy Consortium).  Our agreements are based on the IL-NDPA format approved by the SDPC.  Full information on the list of operators and data elements provided is available on this page:
