Request for Public Records - Sunshine Law Requests

The School District of University City believes that local control of public education is best served when the patrons of the District and other members of the public have access to the meetings, records and votes of the Board. The provisions, as outlined in Policy BDDL, govern the release of information concerning the meetings, records and votes of the Board.

In limited situations, important considerations of public policy require meetings of the Board, including any record or vote, to be closed to the public. Meetings, records and votes shall only be disclosed to the public as provided by the Missouri Sunshine Law.
