Requires public schools to provide age-appropriate information to students in grades nine through 12 on United States military and veterans.

S 4256 requires New Jersey public schools with grades 9-12 to hold an annual 30-minute assembly in November (coinciding with Veterans Day) providing age-appropriate information about the U.S. military structure, veterans' contributions, and military programs like ROTC and service academies. Schools must also hold a separate veterans appreciation event each year, such as honoring veterans, featuring veteran speakers, or participating in military-themed educational activities. Schools must consult with local veterans associations when planning the appreciation event. This bill applies to all affected schools starting in the first full school year after enactment.
