Dear

I am writing to you as a concerned parent of a child who attends 
Applegate Elementary School in Freehold Township.
C. Richard Applegate School is the only school in the Freehold Township District that continues to host public elections. Furthermore, during this past Tuesday's election, public voting took place on our school stage while the school remained in session.
Voting locations have been moved for every other school in our district except ours.
While we are aware the district has instituted minimal security measures and procedures, at the very least it is a disruption for students and staff. At worst, it provides someone with a plan to do harm access to our children and dedicated teachers.
In the current climate of our country, holding public elections in our school is an unnecessary risk. As a parent, I am not willing to accept this security risk within my child’s school. 
I am strongly requesting a new venue be found for this polling place.

Sincerely,
