Subject: Emailing SSN info

> Now they want to know if there are any laws pertaining to the emailing of
SSN info. 

Answer this question with the phrase "I recommend you consult the school
board counsel's office", since you're no more qualified to authoritatively
answer this question than an attorney would be qualified to answer a
question about <insert name of OS> installation/administration on -your-
behalf.  

Any question that involves legal obligation is one that I will almost
immediately shunt to counsel, since it's just too tricky/dangerous to be
wrong.
