Pursuant to the California Public Records Act, I hereby request the following records:
All internal school investigation files related to hazing AND/OR the football or cheer teams at West Valley High School from 1990 to present. Any disciplinary actions against football or cheer coaches from 1990 to present. All parent complaints regarding the football or cheer programs, coaches or related activities from 1990 to present. All staff emails from September 2020 to present that include the words hazing, sexual assault, rape, spirit stick, PIYA stick, genitals, football, coach.
The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.
In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 10 calendar days, as the statute requires.

Thank you for your communication, and for expressing that the records request was written so broadly as to be difficult to respond to. My apologies and I can certainly correct this. I do wonder why I am just now being informed of this over a month after the original request.
I would like to amend the request. The original request states:
"All staff emails from September 2020 to present that include the words hazing, sexual assault, rape, spirit stick, PIYA stick, genitals, football, coach."
I am amending that request to include all emails sent or received between September 2020 and the present by West Valley High School's principal, assistant principal, athletic director, former football coach Greg Grandell and any other staff members who serve as football or cheer coaches. Additionally please update the request for emails to include only these words "hazing, bullying, assault, harassment, rape, spirit stick, PIYA stick".
Please let me know ASAP if these amendments do not adequately narrow the scope of your search.
Additionally, I'd like to ask for an update on the status of the other documents requested on November 13, 2020.
Many thanks.
Annelise Pierce
