Open Records Request

Welcome to McAllen ISD's Public Information Request (PIA) Online Portal!

This service will allow the community access to public information while allowing McAllen ISD the ability to meet and exceed all state Open Records compliance rules. With our online portal, individuals go to one central location on the district's website to submit an Open Records request. Requesters will have the ability to log into the portal to track the status of requests, communicate with the district, and receive requested documents.
