This bill mandates that public school districts in New Jersey post their curriculum plans online for each grade level at least 30 days before the start of the school year. The posted curriculum plans must include details such as each unit of study, student learning objectives, course themes, and information about the textbooks and materials that will be used. Additionally, school districts are required to update their websites whenever a curriculum plan is revised.
Furthermore, the bill stipulates that school districts must provide information on when and where parents and legal guardians can review the textbooks and materials associated with the curriculum before they are used in classroom instruction. This initiative aims to enhance transparency and foster collaboration between school officials and families, ensuring that parents are informed and involved in their children's education.
