New Jersey Statutes Title 18A. Education 18A § 11-14

a. School districts around the State are feeling the effects of the tough economic climate;

b. Reductions in State aid are requiring boards of education to make drastic cuts in programs and services offered in their school districts;

c. Many school districts have been forced, for example, to eliminate summer school programs, resulting in a decrease Statewide in the availability of these types of programs; and
