Playing Dirty (with words) Part 2

A sexy OPRA

Want to know what EXACTLY your children will learn because the groomer Murphy team says so?

Submit an OPRA request to your Superintendent/Curriculum Director on the form for your specific school. They are available on your school’s website.

Here is a great sample written by a friend and BOE candidate Helena Peppe-Coles from Ocean Township, NJ. Remember to be specific with time frames and key words. If at first you are rebuffed, don’t give up!
