The Mystic Valley Regional Charter School says its mission is to provide its students a world-class education that incorporates “selected core virtues and the fundamental ideals of our American culture, which are embodied in the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution.’’
But the Malden-based school has provided incomplete responses to the Globe’s requests for payroll records, sought under the state’s public records law beginning on April 21.
The paper’s request for payroll data was made about the time that local residents began to raise questions about Mystic Valley’s finances after the school paid $4.4 million in cash for a vacant car lot in Malden.
