The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records October 31, 2022 SPR22/2338 Cheryl Kirkpatrick, Ed.D. Assistant Superintendent of Schools Mendon-Upton Regional School District 150 North Avenue Mendon, MA 01756 Dear Dr. Kirkpatrick: I have received the petition of Dr. Alison Freeman appealing the response of the Mendon-Upton Regional School District (School) to a request for public records. See G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On September 21, 2022, Dr. Freeman requested “…every email sent to [two identified email addresses] and every internal email related to [a particular incident].” The School responded on October 13, 2022. Unsatisfied with the School’s response, Dr. Freeman petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR22/2338, was opened. Subsequently, I learned that the School provided a further response to Dr. Freeman on October 24, 2022. Where the basis of this appeal was opened as a result of the School’s October 13, 2022 written response, I will consider this administrative appeal closed. Dr. Freeman may appeal the substantive nature of the School’s October 24, 2022 response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records cc: Dr. Alison Freeman One Ashburton Place, Room 1719, Boston, Massachusetts 02108 • (617) 727-2832• Fax: (617) 727-5914 sec.state.ma.us/pre • pre@sec.state.ma.us
