Revises requirements for school safety teams; requires creation of district school climate improvement plans.
This bill (A3934) requires New Jersey school districts to form school climate teams (replacing previous "safety teams") that meet monthly to address bullying and harassment. It mandates schools to complete annual self-assessments, conduct climate surveys, and develop district-wide school climate improvement plans that must be submitted to school boards by May 31 each year. The bill also requires districts to establish anti-bullying mentorship programs at each school to foster teacher-student relationships and prevent bullying. These plans will be integrated into New Jersey's school accountability system (NJQSAC), with the State Board of Education assigning point values for compliance. The bill directly affects all public school districts, administrators, teachers, and students across New Jersey.
