NPE Endorsement: Marie Corfield for New Jersey State Assembly – Election June 4th.
Endorsee #2, Teacher Marie Corfield, Ready to Shake Things Up in New Jersey!
The Network for Public Education has endorsed another candidate. Marie Corfield is running for the state assembly, in an election that will take place on June 4th.Marie became an art teacher in 2001, and has taught at Robert Hunter Elementary School in Flemington since 2004. She Vice President-elect of the Flemington-Raritan Education Association and is also the legislative chairperson.
After challenging Governor Chris Christie at a Flemington town hall meeting in 2010 about his derisive rhetoric about public education and teachers, the governor posted the video on his You Tube channel where it went viral.
The students of New Jersey need legislators who understand what they need – and it is not more tests and budget cuts to the classroom. Our endorsement means that we strongly believe Marie is a candidate worthy of our support. If everyone who reads this sent her $10, she would have a very sizable boost to her campaign. Her campaign website is here.
