S 2631 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires legislative approval of State Board of Education rules and regulations; repeals equity regulations.

This bill requires New Jersey's State Board of Education to obtain legislative approval - via a concurrent resolution - before adopting, amending, or readopting any education rules, including technical or substantive changes. It repeals the "Managing for Equity in Education" regulations (found in N.J.A.C.6A:7) that governed school equity practices. These changes directly affect public schools and districts by shifting rule-making authority from the State Board to the Legislature. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.
