All confidential credential files will be >maintained at the Office of Career Services. Generally, credential >files should include your student teaching evaluation(s) and letters >of recommendation from professors, administrators, former employers, >or other appropriate persons.

You should ensure that your student teaching >evaluations have been completed and are a part of your credential >file before you, or Career Services, send a copy to the school >district. If your file is confidential, you must provide Career >Services with a written request in accordance with Federal privacy >laws and a $3.00 fee for each file you wish to send.
