Creates pilot program to fund adult education programs for residents of certain communities.
This bill establishes a 5-year pilot program to fund adult education programs in New Jersey school districts with historically low high school graduation rates. It provides $1,500 per eligible adult student (defined as those living in districts in the bottom 20% for graduation rates during 2016-2017) enrolled in approved career-focused adult high school programs, with annual funding increases tied to inflation. School districts operating these programs receive state aid starting in 2020-2021. The program requires a 2026 report evaluating participation, diploma attainment, and whether to expand it statewide.
