Shanda, the mother in Anaheim, is not a politician.\u00a0 She is a parent like many of us.\u00a0 She was minding her own business until her school district took it upon themselves to fundamentally change the direction of teaching and learning in her district.\u00a0 Instead of waiting for someone else to take action, Shanda jumped in and turned things upside down.<\/p>\n

As noted in the article, her public records requests were crucial for gathering evidence.\u00a0 It is your right to obtain information from your governments and school boards.\u00a0 They likely will resist.\u00a0 They will tell you they are busy, if they respond at all.\u00a0 They may send you only partial information.\u00a0 Don’t give up.\u00a0 Check your state statutes to see if there are time limits for them to respond and any repercussions if they don’t.\u00a0 If you can’t find a public records request form on your district’s website, call and ask them to email you one.<\/p>\n

Currently in Arizona there are two school districts who have not returned our public records requests in a timely manner.\u00a0 Both have told us they are busy.\u00a0 Public school districts don’t want to share information because their spending and agenda will be uncovered, which will derail their constant begging for more money and administration.<\/p>\n

Don’t depend on the media to do this for you.\u00a0 You are the parent\/taxpayer, you can do it yourself.\u00a0 You can be Shanda.\u00a0 For the children.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
