LA HB632

Requires all public school governing authorities, including charter schools, to share student personal information (social security number, full name, date of birth) with the Louisiana Department of Education, which then shares it with the Kathleen Babineaux Blanco Public Policy Center for LA FIRST research purposes

Mandates initial data sharing include current student information plus at least five years of historical personal information for former students, with updates required at least annually

Defines "personal information" as social security number, full name, and date of birth; "nonpersonal information" as all other data in the LA FIRST system

Requires personal information be removed from research files after unique identifiers are assigned, prohibiting research and analysis on data containing personal information

Authorizes the Department of Education to implement streamlined information sharing processes by incorporating requirements into existing data-sharing agreements
