(3) The independent contractor engaged to create and maintain data verification codes.
(B) Upon a request by the department under division (A) of this section for the data verification code of a qualified special education child or a request by the eligible applicant for the child for that code, the school district or community school shall submit that code to the department or applicant in the manner specified by the department. If the child has not been assigned a code, because the child will be entering kindergarten during the school year for which the scholarship is sought, the district shall assign a code to that child and submit the code to the department or applicant by a date specified by the department. If the district does not assign a code to the child by the specified date, the department shall assign a code to the child.
The department annually shall submit to each school district the name and data verification code of each child residing in the district who is entering kindergarten, who has been awarded a scholarship under the program, and for whom the department has assigned a code under this division.
(C) The department shall not release any data verification code that it receives under this section to any person except as provided by law.
