New Jersey Statutes Title 18A. Education 18A § 48-1

The board of education of any school district may establish and maintain public evening schools for the instruction of persons over 16 years of age. Unless such evening schools are maintained for at least 64 evening sessions of at least 2 hours each in each year and at least 3 evening sessions each week, the amount of State school aid payable to such district for the ensuing year shall be determined without including therein any sum for evening school pupils. Each board of education may, to the extent its facilities will permit and subject to the regulations of the Department of Education, accept students who are residents of any other school district in the State. For the purposes of calculating State school aid for approved public evening schools, the number of students shall be the sum of the resident and nonresident students.
