Public Records Act Requests

Please Note – Student records are NOT public records.  Please contact the Student Hearing and Placement Office at (916) 643-9425 for copies of student records.

Requests for public records of the District are processed by the Legal Services Department. The Legal Services Department has developed this webpage to provide community members a more effective and cost-efficient way to submit requests for records and access to frequently requested records. The PRA does not provide for creation/preparation of a record or document that does not exist at the time of the request.

The PRA requires public agencies to initially respond to a request for records within ten calendar days. SCUSD will endeavor to complete the request within this time. However, if the records are numerous or other factors make reviewing and collating the relevant documents or records difficult, SCUSD may inform the requestor of the status of the request within ten days, and further inform the requestor of an estimated timeframe for completion.
