Pursuant to the Maryland Public Information Act (PIA) – Md. Code Ann., General Provisions §§ 4-101 et seq., I respectfully request copies of any existing records reflecting the district-issued direct work telephone numbers (direct dial lines) assigned to employees currently serving in the following roles:
• Superintendent
• Assistant / Deputy Superintendent
• Chief Financial Officer / Finance Director
• Director of Technology / IT
• Director of Human Resources
This request is limited to district-issued work contact numbers only. I am not requesting personal cell phone numbers, home phone numbers, or privately maintained contact information.
This request is limited to existing records only and does not require the creation of any new record. If these phone numbers are maintained within a staff directory, internal contact list, telecommunications record, or similar document, an electronic copy of that record is sufficient.
