Toledo superintendent sued over public records

Advocates for Basic Legal Equality Inc. yesterday filed a lawsuit in Lucas County Common Pleas Court against Toledo Public Schools Superintendent John Foley seeking public information.

The public interest law firm requested documents relating to the passage rates and administrative policies for the Ohio graduation test and the school district’s schedule of building schools, building funding, and use of minority contractors.

The complaint said the information was first requested Feb. 27 and that several follow-up phone calls were made and letters sent about the records. To date, only five of the firm’s 12 requests have been fulfilled, the complaint said.

The lawsuit requests that the district be ordered to supply the remaining documents.
