Bill overview
This bill requires New Jersey school districts receiving preschool education aid to operate a ‘mixed delivery system,’ partnering with licensed child care providers and Head Start programs to offer free full-day preschool to eligible three- and four-year-olds. Districts must prioritize utilizing these community-based programs and avoid selective placement of students. The bill also outlines specific funding formulas and a phased implementation plan, including five-year plans and adjustments for districts with varying levels of at-risk pupils.
