New JerseyNew Jersey schools would get preliminary state aid notices each November
Each November, New Jersey school districts would get preliminary maximum aid amounts for the next school year, starting with aid distributed in the second full year after enactment.
What it does
By the end of November’s first week, districts would get preliminary notices of their maximum state aid for the next school year, starting with aid distributed in the second full year after enactment.
Argument forEarlier aid estimates could give school districts more time to plan budgets before the later notice following the governor’s budget message.
Argument againstDistricts might need to revise budget plans if the later aid notice differs from the preliminary amount provided in November.
More detail
The education commissioner would send each district a preliminary notice of its maximum state aid for the next school year. The notice would cover aid under New Jersey’s school funding law. Notices would be due annually by the end of November’s first week. The act would take effect immediately, first applying to aid distributed in the second full year after enactment.
