Weston Public Schools DEI Records Project

What a publicly funded DEI Coordinator position was assigned to do, what the public asked to inspect, and what access to those records was estimated to cost. Weston estimated $5,416.67 to search for three months of work, then said it had run no electronic searches to build that estimate. Two appeals and a pending reconsideration later, no responsive record has been produced.

What the public asked to inspect about a publicly funded principal search at the Mary K. Goode Elementary School, what the district produced, and what it said it had no records of. The Supervisor of Records has twice held that the district had not met its burden to redact, and has ordered the district to answer G.L. c. 66, § 3A.

East Bridgewater Public Schools Public Records Project

A search of district email for a single word produced 13 PDFs and 2,243 pages. The Supervisor of Records upheld the district's redactions of student and parent names, found the remaining redactions insufficiently explained, and ordered the district to clarify. A 47-page blackout and a 31-page School Committee letter the district says it does not have remain open.
