Requires school districts to provide access to preschool and submit plan for preschool implementation.

This bill mandates that New Jersey school districts offering elementary education must provide free, full-day preschool programs for three- and four-year-olds starting in the 2029-2030 school year. Districts that do not currently have such programs must submit a detailed implementation plan to the state by June 30, 2027, and may partner with neighboring districts to meet this requirement. The legislation also clarifies that these preschool programs must meet specific quality standards and outlines eligibility for state funding assistance for districts that establish them.
