Request for public records made to City of Framingham by Amanda Shepard.

Agency

City of Framingham

Summary

It's time to request information through FOIA. The Response and Management to this request will create a kind of space.   We are trying to better understand the protocols in place for reporting and acting on information submitted to OEDCD, whether through the equity form or other protocols and channels of communication. What is the information contained in these documents submitted by individuals reporting? How many people have reported they've been subjected to violence or misconduct since the forms' inception? (How many students, how many staff, how many parents, etc.) What role, if any, did bias play (as reported)? How many complaints of sexual violence and sexual misconduct have there been, and what action is taken to address each report? What are the available treatments and mechanisms deployed in support of the students/teachers/staff involved? When are the parents/guardians involved or notified? How are the parents/guardians notified of incidents? What are the procedures in place to communicate information, to record information? What are different reasons given for redacting any information? How are these procedures audited? How often are the audits? How are teachers trained in trauma management and self-healing? How are healthy communities being built? When and in what capacity are the police involved - what is that policy? What are professional stakeholder supporting agencies involved, and what is the protocol for communicating that? What resources are provided to individuals reporting violence at the time of their report? What are the district's policies (including school committee) regarding answering all these questions, and many more questions from others. Where is the list of questions being asked? What is the policy and protocols when disclosure happens in class? Where does the violence occur? When does the violence occur? What is a correct response by the teacher to a student upon disclosure? What is a correct response by the principal to the student upon disclosure?     Please consider this a kind of meaningful project, all in the name of continuously improving public school education to be safe and supportive, to help by extension keeping our entire community healthy and safe.   Humbled by the Right Choices living through action, Amanda Shepard Please see attached.
