Public Information Requests
In accordance with the Texas Public Information Act (TPIA), Chapter 552 of the Texas Government Code, the Anna Independent School District makes all of its public records available to citizens.
The TPIA does not require governmental bodies to create new information, perform legal research, or to answer questions. The request must ask for records or information already in existence.
Please note, this is not the appropriate process to request transcripts or education records. Education records, as defined by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (“FERPA”) are confidential and are not subject to the Texas Public Information Act. Therefore, in order to receive education records related to a student, a request must be submitted to the Anna ISD campus the student attends or most recently attended. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
How to Submit a Request
Anna ISD is committed to transparency and complies with the Texas Public Information Act (TPIA), Chapter 552 of the Texas Government Code. To streamline the process and ensure accuracy, all public information requests should be submitted using our online form.
Alternate Submission Methods
While use of the online form is preferred, requests may also be submitted in writing by:
- Email: publicinfo@annaisd.org
- Mail or in person:

Anna High School Transcripts
Public Information Requests are not used to request high school diplomas or transcripts. Requests submitted through the PIR system for these records will be redirected.

A Note for Issuing Subpoenas
To help us respond efficiently and minimize disruption to District operations, please direct subpoenas to the correct custodian of records as outlined above:
- Student records — Campus Principal
- Personnel/HR records — Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources & Leadership Development
- Business/Financial records — Assistant Superintendent of Finance
Each of these individuals is designated as the person with full knowledge regarding the records in their category and may serve in the Superintendent's stead for purposes of records production.
Business Records Affidavits: Whenever possible, we respectfully request that subpoenas be accompanied by a Business Records Affidavit. This allows the District to produce certified records without requiring a custodian to appear in court, saving time for both your office and ours. If you'd like to request an affidavit in lieu of testimony, please contact the appropriate custodian above.
Subpoenas served on the incorrect custodian may be subject to a Motion to Quash. We're always glad to help direct you to the right person — a quick phone call or email can save everyone time.
Charges and Fees
The charge for providing a copy of public information shall be an amount that reasonably includes costs related to reproducing the public information, including costs of materials, labor, or overhead [section 552.261]. Anna ISD will provide an itemized estimate of charges when the expected fees of providing information will exceed $40.00 [section 552.2615].
You must respond to any written estimate of charges within 10 days of the date the governmental body sent it or the request may be deemed withdrawn (Texas Government Code §552.2615).
Response Timeline
Anna ISD will respond within 10 business days, excluding weekends, holidays, and AISD's designated non-business days. If your request cannot be produced within 10 working days, the public information officer will notify you in writing of the reasonable date and time when it will be available.
