Requires child in home education program and parents to meet annually with representative of resident school district.

This New Jersey bill (A 1341) requires children in home education programs and their parents or guardians to meet annually with a designated school district staff member (a counselor, nurse, or social worker). The meeting serves two specific purposes: allowing parents to request school district support for their home education, and enabling the staff member to conduct a general health and wellness check on the child. The bill applies to all home-educated children in New Jersey and takes effect in the first full school year after enactment. It does not change how home education is structured but adds an annual check-in with the local school district.
