Provides Supplemental Transportation Growth Aid for school districts in 2023-2024 school year; appropriates $31.6 million.
This bill provides $31.6 million in supplemental funding to New Jersey school districts for transportation costs during the 2023-2024 school year. It directly affects all public school districts receiving state aid by calculating each district's share based on two student categories: $40 per regular education student requiring standard transportation, and $275 per special education student needing specialized transportation. The funding is added to existing state school aid, with amounts determined by student counts as of October 16, 2022. The appropriation comes from the Property Tax Relief Fund and takes effect immediately.
