A 2595 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Creates advisory council to oversee revision of core curriculum content standards.

This bill establishes a 15-member Core Curriculum Content Standards Advisory Council to review and update New Jersey's K-12 education standards. The council, including educators, higher education experts, business representatives, parents, and students, will create subject-specific subcommittees to assess current standards. Each subcommittee must research best practices, gather public feedback via surveys and hearings, and propose revisions - ensuring transparency through 60-day comment periods and public posting. The revised standards then go to the State Board of Education for adoption, directly affecting public school curricula, school districts, and students across the state.
