This bill mandates that the Commissioner of Education in New Jersey annually recommend specific dates for spring break that school districts may adopt. It stipulates that if a school district chooses to close for spring break, it must take the commissioner's recommendations into account when planning its schedule. The commissioner is required to provide these recommended dates to the school districts by June 30th of the preceding school year, ensuring that districts have ample time to incorporate the recommendations into their calendars.

The legislation is set to take effect in the 2023-2024 school year, with the first set of recommended dates to be provided by June 30, 2023. This initiative aims to standardize spring break scheduling across school districts, facilitating better planning for families and educational institutions alike.
