AI Summary
This bill establishes a cap on the reduction of State school aid provided to school districts, ensuring that the amount of aid a district receives in any given school year is reduced by no more than one percent compared to the previous year's aid. This provision overrides existing laws and regulations that might allow for larger reductions. The bill also amends a previous law (P.L.2018, c.67) to incorporate this one percent reduction cap, specifically for school districts where the calculated "State aid differential" is positive, meaning they would otherwise see a reduction in aid. The "State aid differential" is a calculation used to determine changes in State school aid. The bill takes effect immediately.
