Permits charter school to limit admission to single gender, students at-risk of academic failure, students with disabilities, or English language learners.

This bill (S 1071) amends New Jersey law to allow charter schools to limit admissions to students based on four specific categories: single gender, students at-risk of academic failure, students with disabilities, or English language learners. It directly affects charter schools in New Jersey by expanding their permitted admission criteria beyond current limits (which only allowed grade-level or academic concentration limits). The key mechanism updates Section 7 of P.L.1995, c.426 to explicitly include these categories, requiring schools to outline such criteria in their charter. The bill does not change existing prohibitions against discrimination based on other factors like disability or language proficiency.
