 DR> Is it illegal to carry a work portfolio of 
 DR> children's work and of parent letters, to an 
 DR> interview? I have a notebook in which I keep copies 
 DR> of children's work, photos of children at work in 
 DR> the classroom, letters and comments from classroom 
 DR> parents, as well as the originals of all of my 
 DR> reference letters. I wouldn't want to do this if it 
 DR> were illegal.
Possibly it is unless proper release is given for these--depends upon the
laws in each state.  Although I cannot speak for NC, here in NM, it is very
specific and restrictive.  Much as if you had taken pictures of people and
sold them, the newspaper cannot print them unless they are part of a
"newsworthy" article.  This is one of the pleasures of being a non-famous
person. Matt could explain this in more detail if he wishes.
 
Now I am wondering what to do with our school's web pages?  I bet I will have 
to clear them through the principal also.
