Student Records

The following can be updated upon submission of the appropriate documentation:

• A chosen name (a personal and/or preferred first, middle, and last name used instead of a legal name);
• Gender Identity (Male, Female, or Non-Binary)
• Pronouns (He/Him, She/Her, They/Them)

Once updates are made by the school or Enrollment, this information will be synced across multiple BVSD systems and be reflected in Infinite Campus, Frontline, Google, Seesaw, and more. Changes to the name listed will be visible to all individuals with a Parent Portal connected to that student. 

Documentation related to the requested change will not be kept by BVSD once reviewed. 

Documents or information stored as a PDF or Word document in Infinite Campus or Frontline are not automatically changed. To request amendment or deletion of these records, please submit a Request to Amend Records Form.

• To request a change to a student’s first or middle name or gender marker, without legal documentation, complete Form AC-E6. 
• To request a change to a student’s last name, without legal documentation, complete the Name Change Request Form.
• If the student’s name has been legally changed, please submit that documentation to the school of enrollment. 

Transcripts or other records for students who were not enrolled in BVSD as of the 2018-2019 school year are stored as an image and unable to be amended. All records will show the legal name at the time of withdrawal or graduation.

Students that were enrolled in BVSD during the 2018-2019 school year or sooner are able to update the legal or chosen name shown on records and transcripts. 

High School diplomas are not able to be issued with an updated legal or chosen name after graduation.
