New Jersey A1180 defines a day in session for school districts to receive state aid.

New Jersey A1180 amends the definition of a "day in session" for school districts to receive state aid. A day in session is defined as a day when the school is open, students are under the guidance of a teacher engaged in the teaching process, and lasts at least six hours. This six-hour requirement does not apply to schools that only enroll kindergarten students. The bill specifies that the commissioner may withhold state aid for non-compliance with rules, standards, or directives. The changes will apply starting with the 2015-2016 school year.
