Making a Public Records Request is Easier Than You Think
3 Easy Steps:
Write a short email describing what you’re looking for (be as specific as you can).
Send it to: RecordRequests@BrowardSchools.
They must acknowledge your request and respond.
That’s it. You don’t have to explain why you want the information, and you can even stay mostly anonymous if you prefer.
Need help writing your request?
Copy and paste this prompt into any AI (like ChatGPT, Grok, or Gemini):
Help me write a polite public records request email to Broward County Public Schools under Florida’s Public Records Act (Chapter 119). I want to request: [describe what you’re looking for in plain language]. Make the email clear, specific, and professional. Include a request for electronic copies if available and ask for a cost estimate if fees will apply.
Just replace the bracketed part with what you want (for example: “actual cost savings from schools closed last year” or “any leases or plans for the closed Silver Lakes building”). The AI will draft it for you in seconds.
You’re allowed to ask. Transparency is the law.
