A 2876 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Allows choice districts to increase enrollment in interdistrict public school choice program to offset certain reductions in State school aid.

This bill (A2876) allows New Jersey school districts participating in the Interdistrict Public School Choice Program to temporarily increase student enrollment if they lose state school aid due to a specific 2018 law (P.L.2018, c.67). Districts can raise enrollment only up to the exact number of students needed to generate enough school choice aid to fully offset the lost state aid. The increase must not exceed this threshold, and districts receive additional school choice aid for each new student enrolled under this provision. The bill directly affects participating school districts facing aid reductions from the 2018 law, ensuring their funding remains stable through enrollment adjustments.
