A 4107 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes five-year community schools pilot program.

This bill establishes a five-year pilot program to create "community schools" in New Jersey public schools. Community schools coordinate year-round access to educational, health, family, and community services through partnerships, directly affecting one public school per county (including district, charter, and renaissance schools) selected for participation. The program assigns trained site coordinators from a state-selected nonprofit or higher education partner to support school implementation, while creating a dedicated fund for program costs. It requires technical assistance, annual audits, and an independent evaluation to assess the model’s effectiveness.
