FERPA Directory Information
KCCC follows the guidelines of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) regarding all student records. Under Ohio law, directory information includes information such as student name, address, telephone listing, birth date, etc. This information can be released to various colleges, recruiters, agencies, and employers, unless the parent or student 18 years or older notify the school in writing by September 15 of each school year that (s)he will not permit distribution of the directory information. If you would like to “opt out” of releasing your child’s directory information, your request will be honored. Please keep in mind that KCCC will not be able to release information to any third party, including colleges and employers, once you opt out. If you wish to opt out, please give written notice to the director of the Knox County Career Center.
KCCC's First Day of School Please call us at 740-397-5820 if you have any questions prior to the first day of school.
Picture Day is Thursday, August 29th at KCCC. Picture forms were distributed at Schedule Pick-Up Day to students & families. Picture forms will be distributed on Monday, August 19th, in English classes to those who didn’t get a picture form on Schedule Pick-Up Day. There will also be picture forms available in the front office. You can also order pictures online via the website & code in this post.
Please email Mr. Bellman at nbellman@knoxcc.org if you have questions. Thank you!
Parents may drop off students between 7:30 a.m. and 7:55 a.m. in the parent concrete drop-off area by the flag pole (Parent Drop-Off Loop in black on the diagram with green arrows). Pull all the way forward, drop off your student, and pull out turning left.
Parents, please do not enter the bus loop to drop off your student, which is the blacktop drive closest to the school (purple arrows).
Preschool parents may begin using the parent drop-off loop at 7:55 a.m. High School parents should use parking spots rather than the loop after 7:55 a.m. to prevent getting stuck in the Preschool parent drop-off traffic.
