Freedom of Information Act (FOIA)

  • The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) is a state statute that provides the public the right to access government documents and records. The premise behind FOIA is to ensure transparency of government. The law provides that a person can ask a public body for a copy of its records on a specific subject and the public body must provide those records, unless there is an exemption in the statute that protects those records from disclosure. The Cary Community Consolidated School District has developed the Administrative Regulations and Procedures to comply with the conditions and provisions of the Freedom of Information Act. FOIA requests can be viewed in the requests tab.

    How to File A Freedom of Information Act Request

    A request for inspection and/or copies of public records must be made in writing using the FOIA Request Form
