Provides supplemental appropriation to ensure certain school districts receive additional amounts of special education categorical aid, security categorical aid, and transportation aid.
This bill provides temporary supplemental funding to New Jersey school districts that received less special education, security, or transportation aid in 2024-2025 than calculated under the 2008 School Funding Reform Act. Eligible districts must have faced state aid reductions in both 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 while spending below state-defined adequacy levels. The supplemental funds are added to existing aid calculations to match the 2008 formula amounts, preventing budget shortfalls. It directly affects qualifying districts experiencing unintended aid shortfalls due to current funding formulas.
