A 3015 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires county to provide extraordinary special education aid to school districts located in county for students with costs over $55,000 and State to reimburse county.

This bill changes New Jersey's funding for high-cost special education services. For students whose annual special education costs exceed $55,000, school districts will now receive 100% of the excess amount directly from their county government rather than from the state. The state will reimburse counties for these payments to school districts. This affects school districts across New Jersey that serve students with the most intensive special education needs. The bill also requires property tax bills to include a separate line item showing the tax levy supporting extraordinary special education aid.
