Modifies method of allocating State aid for providing auxiliary and remedial services to nonpublic school students.
This bill (S 194) modifies how New Jersey allocates state aid to school districts for providing auxiliary and remedial services (like speech correction, examinations, and supplementary instruction) to students attending nonpublic schools. It establishes a new formula for calculating aid amounts based on historical service data, requires annual reporting of eligible students, and mandates districts to budget for these services using state aid. The changes directly affect nonpublic school students needing these services and the local school districts responsible for delivering them. Note: This bill was withdrawn on January 13, 2026, as it was approved as part of P.L.2025, c.252.
