RFMS requests your consent to allow your student to use the supplemental tools listed above, as these tools may collect personally identifiable student information, such as first and last name, classroom teacher, or grade level. This information is typically collected by online digital tools to enable use of the tool and to track student progress.
Descriptions of the above supplemental tools are provided on the MCPS Data Privacy and Security website, located at:
