Most records I archive at the end of the year. They get dumped when the student leaves the system (graduates high school or transfers). I think they keep them a year in case anybody wants to have them tranferred). The only thing I keep are things that are the active student health history report and last years IEP, IHP, etc... (handy to have going forward into the next one).
In my state every school record must be kept for 7 years, including the health record. How long does your school have to keep student records after they leave or graduate?
I also give my seniors their own health physical health records during their exit interview at my school.
Edit: wow - 60 years??

How long must school health office records be kept for students? This does not include immunization records.
