Requires DOE to develop transition checklist for students with disabilities; requires DOE to maintain information on website concerning transition resources.
New Jersey's S 1180 requires the Department of Education (DOE) to create a standardized checklist for school districts to help students with disabilities plan transitions from high school to post-secondary life. The checklist covers areas like education, employment, healthcare, legal matters, and social services, and must be reviewed twice yearly by a student’s IEP team starting at age 16. The DOE must also maintain a website with current, accessible information about community resources and support services for these students. This bill directly affects students with individualized education plans (IEPs), their families, and school districts across New Jersey.
