Directs DOE to establish advertising campaign to attract candidates to teaching and education support professions; appropriates $1 million.
This bill directs New Jersey's Department of Education to create a multimedia advertising campaign promoting teaching and education support careers as engaging and rewarding opportunities. The campaign must highlight available scholarships, student loan programs, and financial support for prospective educators, using digital, TV, radio, and print media. It also requires targeted outreach to recruit teachers from underrepresented racial groups and into high-demand fields like STEM education, special education, and bilingual programs. The bill appropriates $1 million from federal ARP Act funds to implement these efforts, effective immediately.
