Cameras in Classrooms

As you may know, families of students in Special Education self-contained classrooms - as well as campus & district staff - have the right to request cameras within those classrooms.  This is based on Texas Administrative Code §103.DD.  If you would like to request a camera in your student’s classroom, you can use the QR code below to submit your request at any time.

Once we receive a request to install a camera, YES Prep is required to install and activate the camera within 45 school days, provided that the request meets the guidelines of the law.  If a request to install a camera is made in your child’s classroom, you will receive notification from campus staff. 

Please note that if you or another family submitted a request last year, that request expired on the last day of school.  Even if a camera is still present in the classroom, the camera has been turned off and will not be recording unless we receive a new request that meets the guidelines of the law.

YES Prep staff would review the footage from the classroom if and only if we receive a written complaint of a student safety issue.  The only people with access to the video footage are the Principal on your student’s campus, the Director of Campus Operations, and our Safety & Security team at the Home Office.
