Establishes summer transition pilot program for rising kindergarten students who meet certain criteria.
S 2225 establishes a four-year summer transition pilot program for rising kindergarten students in New Jersey. It targets students from high-need backgrounds - those with family income at or below 85% of state median income, who did not attend full preschool, or belong to priority groups like English language learners, students with IEPs, or homeless children. Participating school districts must run a six-week summer program focused on language, literacy, and math, plus family support resources, with up to 15 districts selected statewide. The program requires districts to report on participation and outcomes, with funding provided through a dedicated state education fund.
