On October 15, 2015, the court held a hearing on the parties’ dispute regarding Plaintiffs’
discovery of contact information for families whose children were enrolled in Ms. Holder’s classroom.
Docket No. 98. At the hearing, Plaintiffs’ counsel represented to the court that if a family did not want
to talk to the Plaintiffs, Plaintiffs would not take any steps to contact that family. The court ordered
BUSD to send a new notice regarding the disclosure of contact information to families that had been in
Ms. Holder’s classroom from 2005-2012, as well as any families that complained about Ms. Holder
during her employment with BUSD. Id. This notice provided parents or guardians an opportunity to
object to disclosure of their contact information by sending a letter stating the reason for the objection
to the undersigned within thirty days of receipt of the notice. Docket 116 at 5.
The court has received three objections to date. The court orders Plaintiffs to file a letter by
November 30, 2015 stating whether they intend to pursue disclosure of the contact information for
families that have objected.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated: November 25, 2015
