Establishes Elementary Home Reading Grant Program; appropriates $500,000 to DOE from federal funds.

This bill establishes New Jersey's Elementary Home Reading Grant Program to improve reading proficiency among elementary students. It appropriates $500,000 in federal pandemic relief funds to provide grants to school districts partnering with nonprofits, requiring weekly book mailings to students' homes, multilingual parent engagement communications, and student-chosen book collections (6-9 books annually). School districts must submit competitive applications detailing how their programs meet specific criteria, including data tracking on parental engagement and reading progress. The program mandates annual data reporting to the state and requires districts to match grant funds at 100% per student.
