OWASSO INDEP. SCH. DIST. NO. I011 v. FALVO, 00-1073
Peer grading, or allowing students to grade one another's tests, papers, and assignments while teachers explain the correct answers to the entire class does not violate the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA), since student papers are not "maintained" under Section 1232g(a)(4)(A) of FERPA at the time students perform peer grading, nor do student graders constitute people who are "acting for" an educational institution under the statute.
