A 4390 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Makes $20.2 million supplemental appropriation for increased nonpublic school security aid; modifies budget language to increase per pupil amount.

This bill adds $20.2 million in supplemental funding from the General Fund to New Jersey's Department of Education specifically for nonpublic school security aid. It increases the per-pupil security aid amount from $205 to $338, calculated by multiplying $338 by each district's count of nonpublic school students. The funding directly supports school districts in providing security services, equipment, or technology to ensure safe learning environments for nonpublic school students. This raises total nonpublic security aid funding from $30.55 million to $50.8 million.
