New Jersey A5178 prohibits the application of a State aid growth limit to State school aid provided to school districts in the 2026-2027 school year. This means that school districts will not have their aid reduced by a six percent growth limit. The bill defines "State school aid" as the sum of a district’s equalization aid, transportation aid, special education categorical aid, and security categorical aid. It also defines "uncapped State school aid" as the amount of these aids calculated before any growth limit is applied.
