Data Classification & Handling

Data Classification and Handling Requirements

Data handling requirements have been set forth in District Policy 800 to provide a clear protocol for handling each category of data dependent upon its form and classification.

Administrative Data Classifications & Information Owners

The District's administrative data is organized by the software application responsible for it. The following list includes each application category, its information owner, and a hyperlink to detailed information on its data classification.

Users of Central Dauphin School District data, in any form and for any purpose, are urged to contact the designated data stewards for guidance in cases that present handling questions or security concerns.  These handling requirements are reviewed annually or when warranted by significant changes to the data or its inherent applications.  Comments regarding these requirements should be emailed to the Director of Technology Services.
