Requires school districts to provide instruction on interacting with law enforcement as part of New Jersey Student Learning Standards in Social Studies.

New Jersey's A 3711 requires all public school districts to add age-appropriate lessons on interacting with law enforcement to social studies curriculum starting in 2018-2019. It mandates teaching students about police responsibilities for public safety, individual duties to follow lawful directives, and legal rights during police interactions. The bill specifies two curriculum tiers: basic lessons for K-4 students and more detailed instruction for grades 5-12. An advisory committee - including police unions, civil rights groups, and education organizations - will help develop the materials, with the Commissioner of Education overseeing implementation.
