Requires school districts to maintain restrooms in good working order.
This bill requires all New Jersey public school districts to maintain restrooms in working order and meet specific daily standards. It directly affects every public school serving students aged 5-20, mandating that restrooms must have functioning toilets/sinks, stocked toilet paper, operable stall doors, working hand dryers or paper towel dispensers, emptied trash bins, and maintained menstrual product disposal units. School districts must clean and sanitize restrooms daily and update or renovate facilities as needed. The law amends existing requirements for school facilities to explicitly include these restroom standards.
