A Community’s Right to Know

The East Lycoming School District strives to offer transparency to the community through normal operations.  There are of course times when an individual may request information that is otherwise not publicly available and we welcome the opportunity to assist you.  If you are seeking records that are not already publicly available, use the downloadable Records Request form below.  All completed forms must be submitted to the District’s Open Records Officer at RTK@elsd.org.

Only forms submitted on the PA Standard Right to Know request form will be accepted.  Submission on any other form will be denied.

Verification of Identity

Right to Know requests will only be fulfilled if submitted by a person that is a legal resident of the United States. Anonymous requests will not be fulfilled. We reserve the right to request proof of a requester’s status in the form of submission of any or all of the following: a physical address, proof of legal status in the United States such as a social security number, copy of passport, driver’s license or immigration documents.

Maintaining District Security

To ensure the security of district equipment, programs, facilities, and personnel, requests that are deemed to be suspicious, a phishing attempt, or spam, will be denied.
