The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records June 8, 2023 SPR23/1194 Carol Jacobs Superintendent Georgetown Public Schools 51 North Street Georgetown, MA 01833 Dear Superintendent Jacobs: I have received the petition of Kevin Wood appealing the nonresponse of the Georgetown Public Schools (School) to a request for public records. See G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On May 18, 2023, Mr. Wood requested “…notification of appointment/ promotion/job description since 2016 and records mentioning educator or other required licensure since December 1, 2022 for [named individuals].” Claiming to not yet have received responsive records, Mr. Wood petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR23/1194, was opened as a result. Subsequently, I learned that the School provided a response to Mr. Wood on June 6, 2023. Where this appeal was opened as a result of the School’s lack of a written response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. Wood may appeal the substantive nature of the School’s response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records cc: Kevin Wood 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
