Pursuant to the New York State Freedom of Information Law (FOIL), I am requesting the following records:
All communications, including emails, memos, and other written documents, related to the decision to cancel remote instruction on 3/14/23, specifically as it relates to the State of Emergency declared by the State of New York due to inclement weather.
Any policies, guidelines, or procedures related to the decision-making process for cancelling remote instruction during inclement weather and/or a State of Emergency.

Additionally, I am requesting any records or information related to the potential impact of cancelling remote instruction on student learning, including but not limited to any identified learning loss or negative impacts on academic progress. Specifically, I am requesting any records or communications related to the report published by NYS Comptrollers Office [1] on 3/13/23, which identified concerns related to learning loss and academic progress.
I am making this request in the public interest as it relates to the use of public funds, the decision-making process for cancelling remote instruction during inclement weather and/or a State of Emergency, and the potential impact on student learning. I request that the records be provided in electronic format, if possible.
