The quote you posted indicated that name, address, and phone number had to be given out upon request by the military regardless of the policy of giving information to other employers, or notably, other schools and colleges.

LEAs are also generally required to provide students’ names, addresses, and telephone listings to military recruiters, when requested

If additional information, such as grades, were given to potential colleges, that information must also be supplied to the military. All this is to be cross indexed in Poindexter's database with credit card information, movie rentals, and hotel receipts.

to give military recruiters the same access to secondary school students as they provide to postsecondary institutions or to prospective employers

Not quoted is the part that the military will get the information unless the parents block all personal information from the school, and this includes putting the student's name in the yearbook, or a phone directory, or a sports roster, or any other potentially public item even if distribution would normally be distributed only to other students in the same school.
