New Jersey A167 requires legislative approval for changes to core curriculum content standards and Statewide assessments.

New Jersey A167 mandates that any updates or revisions to core curriculum content standards and Statewide assessments must be approved by the Legislature. The State Board of Education must submit these updates or revisions to the Legislature, which has 45 days to adopt a concurrent resolution approving or disapproving the changes. If approved, the changes can be implemented; if disapproved, they cannot be implemented. This bill ensures legislative oversight over educational standards and assessments.
