Overview
This bill creates a grant program within the New Jersey Department of Education to reimburse public school teachers for classroom material expenses. Teachers would receive up to $250 per school year to cover the cost of supplies like books and equipment. The program would distribute funds to school districts based on the number of full-time teachers they employ, with any remaining funds used to reimburse teachers who spent more than $250 on classroom supplies. Funding for the program will come from federal funds allocated through the American Rescue Plan Act.
