CORA (Colorado Open Records Act) Request
Custer County School District C-1 (CCSD) complies with the Colorado Open Records Act (CORA) in terms of public review of district records [Board Policy KDB and KDB-R]. Information attainable by CORA requests include any writing that is made, kept or maintained by Custer County School District C-1, emails and records that are stored in digital filing systems, computers or servers.

CCSD's records are public, unless otherwise protected, and will respond to the requestor within three business days from the initial request. There is no duty to create a public record that does not already exist. At that time, the district will either provide the records requested or provide a status to the requestor on the scope of the work being done, an estimated ETA when the records will be available, and provide any estimated costs to be paid based on the scope of the request.
