The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records February 22, 2023 SPR23/0237 Alan Strauss Superintendent of Schools Freetown-Lakeville Regional School District 98 Howland Road Lakeville, MA 02347 Dear Mr. Strauss: I have received the petition of Matt Magnarelli appealing the response of the Freetown- Lakeville 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 January 24, 2023, Mr. Magnarelli requested numerous records regarding an identified person entering a named public school. On February 6, 2023, the School provided a response. Unsatisfied with the response, Mr. Magnarelli petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR23/0237, was opened as a result. Subsequently, I learned that the School responded to Mr. Magnarelli’s request with a further response sent on February 13, 2023. Where the basis of this appeal was opened as a result of the School’s February 6th response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. Magnarelli may appeal the substantive nature of the School’s response within ninety days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records cc: Matt Magnarelli Leslie C.
