Please Read: Destruction of Files

Older Files

In conformity with our records retention schedule, all pupil pockets and transcripts  for individuals graduating prior to 1973 have been reviewed and subsequently destroyed. This action is part of our ongoing effort to manage and maintain our records in compliance with law, while also minimizing security risks and resources spent on ongoing storage of paper records.

Files within Retention (50 year transcript)

In conformity with our records retention schedule, all pupil pockets dated between 1973 and the present have been reviewed and destroyed. Transcripts of students graduating less than fifty (50) years ago are retained until reaching that milestone, in compliance with legal requirements and our commitment to efficient records management.

If you have any questions or need further information regarding the destruction of these records, please do not hesitate to contact at recordsmanagement@philasd.org.

 IMPORTANT:

1. We do not accept requests via email, mail, phone or walk-ins.

2. Transcripts are ONLY sent electronically. Replacement diplomas are sent by mail and may take 3 – 6 weeks for delivery. There’s no option for in-person pickup. We do not provide replacement diplomas for alternative Schools, charter Schools, non-public or non-district Schools.

3. All electronic records can be forwarded to 3rd parties and verified for authenticity by visiting https://philasd.scriborder.com/etrans/verification/verify-credentials.
