Volunteer State News, a media organization committed to providing comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, has submitted a request under the Tennessee Open Records Act, §10-7-503 et seq., for a list of all students admitted to the school for the academic year of 2024-25.
The requested records specifically include student names, their home zip codes or hometowns, and the names of their graduated high schools. This information is sought in an electronic format.
As members of the media at Volunteer State News, we are engaged in gathering and reporting news to the public. Access to public records such as these is essential for us to fulfill our professional responsibilities. These responsibilities include holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public. Given our role in disseminating information, we believe we are eligible for a fee waiver as media professionals.
We will keep you updated with any developments regarding this request.
