S 2113 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires adoption of anti-nepotism policies by school districts and charter schools.

New Jersey's S 2113 requires all public school districts and charter schools receiving state funding to adopt anti-nepotism policies. These policies must prohibit hiring close family members (like spouses, children, or parents) of school board members, top administrators, or school attorneys, with limited exceptions for current employees or qualified candidates after a thorough search. The law aims to prevent conflicts of interest in hiring and leadership decisions, and districts must implement these policies to continue receiving state aid.
