Bill Summary
This bill repeals current State that requires school districts to provide instruction on diversity and inclusion, P.L.2021, c.32 (C.18A:35-4.36a). The law provides that school districts incorporate the instruction in an appropriate place in the curriculum of students in grades kindergarten through 12 as part of the implementation of the New Jersey Student Learning Standards.
AI Summary
This bill repeals a previous law, Public Law 2021, chapter 32 (C.18A:35-4.36a), which mandated that public school districts in New Jersey incorporate instruction on diversity and inclusion into the curriculum for students in kindergarten through 12th grade as part of the New Jersey Student Learning Standards. The repeal means that this requirement for diversity and inclusion instruction will no longer be in effect, and the bill takes effect immediately upon its passage.
