S 574 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Clarifies circumstances in which school board member may participate in volunteer activities.

This bill clarifies when New Jersey school board members may volunteer in their own school districts. It permits volunteering as long as the member doesn't give direct orders to staff, interfere with daily operations, direct resources/funds regularly, or be directed by school staff. School board members must first get the superintendent's consent and disclose that their involvement is personal, not official. The law directly affects all school board members in New Jersey districts, ensuring volunteer activities align with existing ethics rules.
