S 4665 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Expands category of nonresident children who school district may enroll without payment of tuition.

This bill expands New Jersey school districts' ability to enroll nonresident children of school employees without tuition. Currently, only children of "teaching staff members" could be enrolled tuition-free; this bill broadens the category to include *all* school district employees permitted by contract or policy to enroll their children without payment. The change applies to all public school districts and affects nonresident children of employees (like administrators, support staff, or cafeteria workers) whose district allows tuition-free enrollment. It updates both enrollment rules and the definition of "resident enrollment" used for state funding calculations. The bill does not affect tuition requirements for non-employee families or other nonresident students.
