New Jersey S409 phases in full funding of extraordinary special education State aid over three years.

New Jersey S409 introduces a three-year phase-in of full funding for extraordinary special education State aid. The bill specifies that 65% of the funding will be provided in the first year, 80% in the second year, and 100% in the third year and each subsequent year. This aid is available for students with low-incidence disabilities, such as autism or severe cognitive impairment, who require intensive services. The aid is calculated based on the actual costs of providing services in public or private schools, with certain thresholds and adjustments applied.
