Bill Summary

This bill extends eligibility for certain grant funding from the New Jersey Schools Development Authority (SDA) to the Marie H. Katzenbach School for the Deaf. The SDA provides grant funding to non-SDA districts, also known as "regular operating school districts." These grants, referred to as "section 15 grants," are provided to address health and safety issues and other critical needs. Under this bill, the Marie H. Katzenbach School for the Deaf would be eligible to apply for a one-time section 15 grant.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing law to make the Marie H. Katzenbach School for the Deaf eligible to receive a one-time grant from the New Jersey Schools Development Authority (SDA). The SDA typically provides grant funding, known as "section 15 grants," to regular operating school districts (those not designated as SDA districts) to address critical health and safety issues and other urgent needs in school facilities. Previously, only these regular operating districts could apply for these grants, but this bill specifically adds the Marie H. Katzenbach School for the Deaf to the list of eligible entities for this type of funding.
