Court Update from FINS

Families Involved In Neighborhood Schools (FINS) is involved in requesting more information from our School District. They had a court hearing on Tuesday. Here is there statement:

===
The complaint filed against ISD 279 was heard Tuesday in Hennepin County Court. The result was positive and a big first step in the right direction. Among the action taken by the Judge was a mandate that the district file affidavits by the end of the day Tuesday outlining how, and when, the data will be produced. The Judge questioned what and how much data the district had compiled since the original request more than three months ago in February. The Judge did not seem at all interested in hearing excuses for why the data has not been produced, but rather, when we will see results.

We will pass along updates as we have them. Thanks for your support.

It is disappointing that the District continues to fight this rather than turn over the documents or even a portion of the documents.
