Are you a K-12 school or college looking for a secure and efficient solution to managing student records, administrative documents, and educational files?
At Record Storage Systems we help educational institutions create and implement secure document management systems for student files and administrative records.

That’s why schools trust Record Storage Systems to manage and retain their education records with confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do schools have to retain student records?
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) doesn’t establish a specific retention period for student records. Retention requirements are generally determined by state law, local policies, and the type of record involved. Record Storage Systems can help schools and districts develop retention schedules that account for the requirements that apply to their records.
Can school districts digitize paper student files and destroy the originals?
In many cases, schools can digitize paper records and eventually destroy the originals when applicable retention requirements have been met. Record Storage Systems can handle scanning, organization, storage, and secure destruction based on your district’s retention policies and applicable requirements.
What happens to student records if a school or district closes?
When a school or district closes, arrangements generally need to be made for the continued custody and access of student records. Record Storage Systems can help schools and districts securely store records during closures, consolidations, and transitions while keeping them accessible to authorized parties.
How do you help schools manage the volume of records generated each academic year?
Record Storage Systems can provide ongoing scanning, storage, and retrieval services as new records are created each school year. This helps schools keep physical files organized and prevents archived records from taking over valuable office space.
