Subject: Public Records Request: Special Ed. Settlements
To:
Dear Superintendent,
Please accept the following records request under the Massachusetts Public Records Act (M. G. L. Chapter 66, Section 10): Settlement agreements entered into by your School District with parents and guardians, from July 1, 2013 through today, relative to the provision of special education services and/or educational placement(s) for students with disabilities, redacted of personally identifying information.
If there are any fees for searching or copying these records, please inform me if the cost will exceed $25. However, I would also like to request a waiver of all fees in that the disclosure of the requested information is in the public interest and will contribute significantly to the public’s understanding of reading instruction in your district. This information is not being sought for commercial purposes.
The Massachusetts Public Records Act requires a response to this request within 10 days. If access to the records I am requesting will take longer than this amount of time, please contact me with information about when I might expect copies or the ability to inspect the requested records.
If you deny any or all of this request, please cite each specific exemption you feel justifies the refusal to release the information and notify me of the appeal procedures available to me under the law.
Please call me if you have any questions.
Thank you in advance,
--
