The site linked below will answer some questions presented about out of town children registered to attend Mullica Township's school.
"Any person filing an affidavit with a board of education to enroll a student in a school should be aware that there are penalties for filing a false affidavit. According to state law, a person is committing a disorderly persons offense if she: 1) fraudulently allows someone else's child to use her residence for enrollment in school when the person is not the primary financial supporter of the child; or 2) fraudulently claims that he or she has given up custody of his or her child to someone in another school district."
"In addition, a board of education has the right to collect tuition from a parent, guardian or caregiver when the board discovers that a student is attending school in a district where the student is not eligible for a free public education."
The residents of Mullica put a large portion of their tax dollars into the Mullica School and it's still not enough to upgrade needed equipment. It's just fair, right & required that the Board of Education should thoroughly investigate suspected cases of false registration.
