Creates advisory council to oversee revision of New Jersey Student Learning Standards.

This bill establishes a 15-member New Jersey Student Learning Standards Advisory Council to guide updates to statewide education standards. The council, appointed from K-12 educators, higher education faculty, business leaders, parents, and students, will form subject-area subcommittees. Each subcommittee must review existing standards using research, compare with other states’ standards, collect public feedback via online surveys and hearings, and propose revisions. Revised standards must undergo a 60-day public comment period and a public hearing before being finalized and submitted to the State Board of Education for adoption. The process directly affects all New Jersey public school districts, higher education institutions, and the families of students in the state.
