Thank you.

Good Morning Ms. Streemke,
OPRA provides the public with access to public documents, not for the
creation of new information. I have already provided you with the
enrollment numbers of the programs you requested along with the list of
students received from other districts.
This OPRA request has been fulfilled.
Thank you,

Dear Anthony LoFranco,
I'm certain that the district has the requested documents, since the district has to follow the strict ratio approved by the State of New Jersey, under N.J. Admin. Code § 6A:14-4.7, of students being educated in self contained classrooms.
From our recent communications it appears as though you will not provide the requested information. I will try to obtain the information by other means.
Thank you for your time.
Yours sincerely,
Chantal Streemke
