The road ahead
The school district has denied access to records despite the State AG ruling in our favor. Stand with us for transparency and our children's safety.
We remain fully committed, alongside our fellow parents and community allies, to securing information that is rightfully ours. This information is essential for Alex II and all BCSD students. No matter how many hurdles in our path, we will not relent. Every child in Bibb County deserves transparency, safety, and the opportunity to succeed.
1. Settlement & Enforcement Path
BCSD’s “Hard No”
Despite Georgia’s Open Records Act requiring disclosure, BCSD has dug in its heels and refused to turn over the documents we requested. Across the country, courts have repeatedly ruled such denials unlawful, yet here we are.
Georgia Attorney General’s Input
Our media partners sought mediation through the Office of the Attorney General. The AG’s office concluded BCSD’s stance isn’t supported by Georgia law and encouraged us to pursue enforcement in Superior Court.
A heartfelt thank you to every parent and community member who has poured time, money, and energy into this, your support will ensure the children of our community get the education they deserve.
2. Disruption Email Production
What We’ve Seen So Far
The first batch of redacted emails confirms what many have whispered: violent, recurring disruptions that prompted repeated evacuations at Alex II last year.
- These incidents likely impeded both academic progress and emotional well-being.
- Parents were not proactively alerted by the district, nor were any details provided when requested, robbing families of the chance to seek appropriate support for their children.
Next Steps
We’ll be filing additional Open Records Requests for any remaining communications. As soon as we have more excerpts that can be shared without compromising family privacy, you’ll see them here in our future updates.
3. Campus-Police Call Records
Our Requests
To understand how BCSD handled safety incidents, we requested:
- Computer-Aided Dispatch (CAD) logs for Alex II (and comparative logs from other schools).
- Phone-call records between campus police and local law enforcement.
Early Observations
What arrived so far appears incomplete—several entries and details are redacted or entirely absent. We are working on a follow-up.
In the meantime, you can see the data for yourself below:
Alex II CAD Log
Alex II Phone Records (Calling campus police)
Springdale CAD log
Springdale to PD phone records
This fight is far from over—and realistically, it may be many weeks before our next public update.
We are here for the long haul, and we are not going anywhere.
Thank you,
-Kerry
