If by "private information" they mean gender, name, and address, I assure you most high schools have been giving this information out about graduating seniors for years, both to the military and other private organizations. Hospitals give out the information of people who recently had babies so they can be targeted with formula and diaper ads. Local governments give out the information of people who have just filed new business names so they can be targeted by small-business-loan people. Your name and address are really not "private information" anymore.

Now, if on the other hand, they're giving out your grades, and which extracurricular activities you participated in, and how many times you had to serve in detention, that's a little weird. Maybe even "disturbing," I dunno.
