Who must maintain confidentiality of disclosed information even if it is shared to protect the health or safety of students?

Law enforcement officers
Medical professionals not involved in the case
School or school district personnel
Any person working in the building

The correct answer is: School or school district personnel

School or school district personnel must maintain confidentiality of disclosed information, even if it is shared to protect the health or safety of students. This is because school personnel are privy to sensitive information regarding students and their families, and in order to protect their privacy and maintain trust, they are obligated to keep this information confidential. Law enforcement officers, medical professionals not involved in the case, and any person working in the building may also be aware of sensitive information, but they do not have the same direct connection to students and their families as school personnel do. Therefore, they are not bound by the same confidentiality obligations.
