S 411 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires board of education to publicly post full meeting agenda 48 hours prior to meeting.

S 411 requires New Jersey school boards to post the full meeting agenda - including detailed descriptions of each item - on their public website at least 48 hours before each meeting. This applies directly to all public school boards in the state, enhancing transparency by ensuring communities have advance access to meeting topics. The bill amends existing law to codify this 48-hour posting requirement specifically for school board meetings, aligning with broader open-meeting principles. It does not change meeting times or voting procedures but mandates clearer public access to agenda content.
