A 4070 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires school districts to implement policy mandating all students and school employees have identification cards.

New Jersey's A4070 requires all public school districts to create policies mandating students and school staff wear visible identification cards at all times during school hours in school buildings. The cards must include the wearer's name, a current photo, and the school year, with staff cards also listing their job title. The state education commissioner will develop guidelines for the cards and explore using student IDs for school services like meal purchases or library access. Additionally, the bill mandates school districts to implement visitor pass systems with screening procedures to monitor entry into school facilities.
