FOIA Request to Maryland State Board of Education Regarding Instructional Mandates for State K-12 Schools on December 10, 2024.
As a media organization committed to providing comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, we at the Baltimore City Wire have sent a request under the Maryland Public Information Act Title 4. The request seeks a list of all instructional mandates for state K-12 schools, including all required courses and general instruction.
The aim is to gain access to public records that are essential in fulfilling our professional responsibilities. These 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 look forward to the cooperation of the Maryland State Board of Education in providing these records promptly and efficiently. We will continue to keep our readers informed about developments related to this request and other matters of public interest.
