[quote=Anonymous]Practically speaking, schools need a way to keep data on students and families. Designing custom software and locally hosting it is expensive. Also, a school-hosted server is not inherently more secure than an off-site host. It may be *less* so. Using large vendors also makes it easier to transfer data between schools as children advance. In much the same way that you have health data stored online through provider systems and insurance companies, school data will also continue to work this way. You can, however, push for better regulation of online data security. Unfortunately, our geriatric legislators and judges don’t seem to have a good handle on what better legal management would look like.[/quote]
