The Buckeye Institute filed the lawsuit in Ohio’s 10th District Court of Appeals on Thursday.
“Despite their clear responsibility to produce these public records, Columbus City School officials have refused to comply with Ohio law, and it is unfortunate that the district’s actions have forced The Buckeye Institute to turn to the courts to resolve what should have been a simple matter of complying with Ohio’s Public Records Act,” Tryon said.
“Although the District is named as a defendant, the plaintiffs’ lawsuit appears to be a contractual dispute between the plaintiffs and their unions in which the plaintiffs allege that the unions continued to collect union dues after the plaintiffs revoked their union membership," said Columbus City Schools spokesperson Jacqueline Bryant."The District will file a response to the lawsuit in court.”There were two public records requests sent on Aug.
A separate records request was sent on Nov. 2 requesting staff training materials and curriculum from Columbus City Schools, including materials “relating to “The 1619 Project” and documents the district has “relating to the College Board’s “AP African American Studies Course” curriculum or training, according to the lawsuit.
On Nov. 16, Columbus City Schools declined the request, “claiming that the requests were overly broad and that the records were not kept in the manner being requested," according to the lawsuit.
