Provides that unexpended nonpublic textbook aid or aid for Nonpublic Technology Initiative may be used to support services provided under other program.
This bill allows New Jersey school districts to use leftover state funding from the nonpublic textbook aid program or the Nonpublic Technology Initiative to pay for services in the other program. Currently, districts must return any unused money from these specific programs after the school year ends. The legislation changes this rule by permitting the transfer of unspent funds between the two programs to help cover costs, provided any remaining balance is refunded by December 1. This change directly affects school districts that receive state aid for nonpublic schools and may help them utilize available resources more flexibly.
