I don't want to take away from the importance of this specific issue.

But documentation at public schools is often a complete disaster anyway. The sheer volume of documentation and even where it should "go" is a huge burden put on teachers who are busy with other things.

I know of a school asking teaches to begin all documentation with some "standard" documentation for every form. Among things like date of birth and etc standard sheet asks for the race of the child, they're explicitly told to not ask the child or family for that information (for a variety of reasons depending on who you ask). They of course have no access to any of the information the school already has about that child. So any documentation automatically becomes impossible to fill out, let alone deliver to the appropriate people.
