When it is known that a custody question exists that involves the relevant legal status of one or both parents of a student in one of the District's schools, the parent(s) may furnish a copy of the pertinent court order or decree, if one exists, that provides information or guidance to clarify the question at issue. School personnel will abide by the court order or decree. Unless otherwise indicated by a court order or decree, separated or divorced parents will have equal rights regarding access and matters involving the education of their children. Unless otherwise indicated by a court order or decree, where the school receives conflicting instructions from the two parents, it will resolve this conflict by following the instructions of the parent with whom the child then currently resides.
