School District Pays for Transparency Fail
from Lawrence News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Lawrence school district just got slapped with attorney fees after a judge called their handling of student transparency requests “slow, empty, and confusing.” The dispute centers on monitoring software they used—and refused to disclose promptly despite legal requirements. The district’s delays, lack of justification, and even switching to a new surveillance tool without board approval drew sharp criticism.

The case, involving student journalists’ digital rights, is far from over—with pre-trial deadlines and a jury trial set for early 2027.
