Nicole Solas Independent Women's Forum APRA school excessive fees

Nicole Solas, a Senior Fellow at the International Women’s Forum, appeared on the Larry O’Connor show in Salem, North Carolina.

Nicole is well known for submitting APRA (Access To Public Records Act) requests to her local school board. A suggestion was made to her in 2021 to submit individual APRAs for each item needed.

She had recently filed an APRA for communications for a principal and the word ‘gender’. The request returned a result of 3400 pages of emails and to obtain those emails, she would have to pay thousands of dollars for the information. Schools are not required to charge a fee but often choose to do so as a deterrent to stop the requestor from gaining access to the sensitive data in discovery of materials unknown to the general public.
