# AISD R000873 — Correspondence Reply Review

## What AISD said

AISD responded to our May 22 narrowed follow-up (which asked only for #9b intra-district transfers and #4c statutory basis):

- **#9b (between-campus transfers):** Refused production. Claims the District does not maintain this data in the requested format. Says producing it would require accessing FERPA-protected student identifiable information (SIIs) from the SIS. Offers a time and cost estimate for programming and redactions.
- **#4c (statutory basis for per-pupil reporting):** Claims the cost estimates provided for #4a and #4b already answer this question. This is incorrect — #4c asks for the specific Texas statute or regulation requiring AISD to report per-pupil expenditure by campus to TEA. Cost estimates for other items do not cite a statute.
- **Request closure:** Asks us to confirm we do not want a cost estimate for #9b so they can close the request.

The reply:
1. Declines to close the request
2. Requests a time and cost estimate for #9b (itemized by programmer rate and labor rate per 1 TAC 70.3)
3. Pushes back on #4c — cost estimates for #4a/#4b do not answer the statutory citation question
