"PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE GIVE ME
AN ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION!" - Eanes ISD Board Member - January 27, 2003
Dianna Pharr submitted her first public information
request to Eanes ISD in 2003. As citizens, we are
often not able to "ask questions" and receive answers from
those who operate our school district. However, we do
have a right to inspect public information that reflects
details regarding the expenditures and operations of our
school district ... and that right is provided to all
citizens by the Texas Public Information Act. Also in 2003, I offered my
volunteer effort to post fundamental information such as board minutes, agendas,
handouts and budget information on the district's website.
When the
district refused, I created my own website.
Susan Bushart, mother of four and Eanes ISD community member also began to
seek "answers" (public information) in 2003. Susan communicated her questions about the public
information she reviewed in a series of letters called "Community Updates",
provided below for your review. - Dianna Pharr
