“I am very happy that I have fought for additional funding for the extraordinary special education fund,” said Senator Vin Gopal (D-11). “It is unfair for local taxpayers – especially those without school-age children of their own – to bear the rising cost of exceptional special education programs. The state must step in to take that burden on them, and this additional funding is being made available in our district. ” will help. “
The New Jersey Eligibility Act contains an “exceptional” provision that grants additional state aid to school districts for every student in need of intensive care. The award is based on an individual student’s placement in one of three categories:
1. Students trained in a public school program with non-disabled peers: For those direct training and support services in excess of $ 40,000, a district will receive a grant equal to 90 percent of the amount of that surplus.
2. Student who has been educated in a public school with only disabled peers: For these direct training and support services in excess of $ 40,000, a district will receive a grant equal to 75 percent of the amount of that surplus.
3rd Private school students: For tuition fees in excess of $ 55,000, a district will receive a grant equal to 75 percent of the amount of that surplus.
“Our intention is to ensure that those districts with excellent special education programs and high numbers of students with exceptional special educational needs do not pay more than their fair share to teach students in their classrooms,” said Rep. Eric Houghtaling (D – 11). “While schools have incurred exceptional expenses during the pandemic, securing additional funding for these schools will help these districts through a tough year of struggle and ensure budgetary justice.”
Funds can be used for services in any special education setting, including an inclusive general education classroom, a district closed-class classroom, or a district-free program such as a private school. Funding goes directly to the sending school district and follows the child.
“When we withhold the funds for success from special needs students, children, families and educators are forced to struggle and compete for funding and resources,” said Joann Downey (D-11), Chair of the Assembly Human Services Committee. “By increasing government funding for exceptional special education, we can end this pointless race and give every classroom the funding it deserves.”
