As a media organization committed to providing comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, access to these public records is crucial for us to fulfill our professional responsibilities. These include holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public.

In our role as disseminators of information, we believe we are eligible for a fee waiver as media professionals. We await a response from the school district and will keep our readers updated on any developments.
