Overview
This bill establishes the New Jersey Community Learning Program within the Department of Education to provide extended learning time programs in communities most impacted by past cannabis-related criminal activity. It dedicates a portion of state cannabis tax revenue to fund these programs, which aim to close achievement gaps and offer services to students outside of regular school hours. The program requires collaboration between school districts and local municipalities, and mandates a detailed program plan for approval before implementation.
