context: Having determined that nothing in the records was relevant to appellant's purposes, the court concluded that the State's strong interest in protecting the privacy of its students generally, and this student particularly, outweighed appellant's need for disclosure of the records. Having carefully reviewed the subject records, we agree with the trial court's conclusion and hold that the trial court did not abuse its discretion when it granted the Board's motion for a protective order.
