Subject: Re: FOIL Request - Procedures for handling removal of school officers by NYSED Commissioner

Dear Brenda Flint,

Thank you for your response to my Freedom of Information Law (FOIL) request dated April 14, 2023. I appreciate your time and effort in looking into this matter.

I understand from your response that the Sole Supervisory District Of Genesee-livingston-steuben-wyoming Counties And Boces (genesee Valley) follows the NYS Education Law for the process of handling the removal of school officers by the NYSED Commissioner and does not have any other specific policy or procedure. Or documents relating to the related NYS Education Law or procedures that would be followed.

However, I would like to clarify that my request also includes any records of past instances where the Commissioner of Education has removed board members, school officers, or superintendents from school districts under the jurisdiction of your sole supervisory district and the actions taken by the sole supervisory district or NYSED in response. If there have been any such instances, there should be records of the actions taken, even if those actions were guided by the NYS Education Law.

If there are no such records, I would appreciate a certification that a diligent search has been conducted and that no such records exist.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your response.

From: Sole Supervisory District Of Genesee-livingston-steuben-wyoming Counties And Boces (genesee Valley)
