Communications and Records Requests
Communications
Rabun County Schools values open, honest communication and believes in positive working relationships with all stakeholders. Well informed and involved stakeholders contribute to the success of Rabun County Schools.
Rabun County Schools utilizes numerous tools and resources to connect with our stakeholders at both the school and district level.
Open Records Request
Under the Georgia Open Records Act (OCGA §50-18-70 to §50-18-77), all public records are available for inspection and copying unless they are specifically exempted from disclosure under the law. If a government agency or custodian of public records withholds a public document from production under an Open Records Request, they will cite to the provision of Georgia law that exempts the record from being produced.
The school district will provide information relating to the request, as permissible and applicable by law, within three business days after it has been received. If production of the information is not possible within that time frame, correspondence will be issues with an explanation. The Open Records Act provides that RCSS may charge for the searching, gathering, production and retrieval of responsive records, depending on what records you seek. Once an estimate has been provided, the requestor will have ten (10) days to approve the estimate. Failure to do so within the specified time limit will result in the request being null and void.
All Open Records Requests must be submitted to Dr. Amy Pruitt.
