Oh no! Sound the alarm! BIPPS is posting open records requests!

Maybe the Kentucky School Board Association (KSBA) is a big fan of us collecting superintendent reviews from under-performing school districts or perhaps it makes them a bit nervous...Either way, they are continuing to report to their followers what we are doing.

I am particularly happy about the fact that they took the time to count how many districts we had posted; saved me the time.

The is page referenced in the above tweet is here.  Take a look at some of these reviews and let us know if you think they are adequate.  More than likely, you'll find some of them amusing.

I was very curious about the number of responses to records requests we received from legal representation...more on this soon.

It's amazing what happens when you turn the lights on! Maybe the KSBA should have been fighting to give their superintendents control over resources in their districts. Now they can just kiss their superintendents good bye. No use having a superintendent when you give all the power to site-based decision making council amateurs and the superintendents say NOTHING. The way it is now the superintendent is a waste of money. Use it or lose it. I guess they are going to lose it.

Or perhaps KSBA is just trying to keep its members informed? Why is BIPPS so concerned that what it posts to its readers has drawn the attention of KSBA? I wonder...

How many other state funded agencies use their twitter account to inform their readers that open records requests are being published.

From what BIPPS is posting, it seems these twitter posts and articles on KSBA's site are more of warning.
