Are teachers allowed to talk about students to other parents?

Can a parent get a teacher fired?
A parent can only put forward the concerns they have, and it is the actions of the teacher that determine if they will remain employed or not. I have had a couple of parents ask the principal to fire me over 15+ years of teaching – but I’ve never done anything that has warranted such action.
Can a teacher tell other students your grades?
Under FERPA a school may not disclose a student’s grades to another student without the prior written consent of the parent or eligible student. This change clarifies that peer-grading does not violate FERPA. No changes from the NPRM.
Can teachers gossip about students?
Teachers wouldn’t gossip about a students personal life, although they might discuss it if it’s relevant to that child’s education, depending on confidentialty. They absolutely do.
