Olathe Public Schools Privacy Statement

  • This is the privacy policy for the Olathe Public Schools (OPS) at http://www.olatheschools.org. Other district websites with different olatheschools.com addresses may have their own privacy policy that differs from this one.  

    Your privacy is of the utmost importance and the best way for us to protect your privacy is to minimize the collection of personal information as much as possible.

    Therefore, most pages on our website collect only the information necessary for our webservers to communicate with your web browser. This information includes, but is not limited to, standard http header information such as your IP address and browser type.

    Some pages on our site may include a form that requests additional personally-identifiable information such as name or phone number. Each of these forms transmits this information only to the person(s) responsible for it, and your information is only shared as necessary within the district to facilitate the program or information that you have asked for. Website administrators may have access to this information from time to time for maintenance purposes only.

    In general, these forms are optional and alternate contact information is provided if you prefer not to use the form.
