Public Records Request

All records maintained by Oak Harbor Public Schools are available for public inspection unless specifically exempted by law. For the most timely and efficient response, requests for school district records should be directed in writing to the Public Records Officer listed below, whose responsibilities include serving as a point of contact for members of the public in this process and overseeing the district’s compliance with the Washington Public Records Act, Chapter 42.56 RCW, and board policy 4040 and 4040P. 

  • Within five business days of receiving a public records request, we will respond in one of the following ways:

    • Provide the records
    • Provide a reasonable estimate of the time necessary to respond to the request
    • Contact the requestor to clarify the request
    • Deny the request and cite why it was denied

    If the record requested contains information exempt from disclosure, the district will produce as much of the record as possible with the exempt portions redacted and include a written explanation of the redaction.

  • Electronic

    You may submit a public records request electronically by emailing publicrecords@ohsd.net. Please indicate in the subject line: "Public Records Request" along with your first and last name.
