S 3910 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires parent or guardian to annually notify school district in writing of intention to home-school child; requires school district to compile and post on district website number of home-schooled children.

This bill requires parents or guardians in New Jersey who plan to home-school their children to submit a written notice to their local school district by August 1 each year. The notification must include the child's name, date of birth, grade level, and the name of the person providing instruction. Additionally, school districts must compile and publish on their websites the total number of home-schooled children in their district along with the grade levels represented. These requirements aim to increase transparency and communication between home-schooled families and public school officials without changing the legal status of home education.
