This bill establishes that children who are under the care, custody, or supervision of the Division of Child Protection and Permanency (DCPP) in New Jersey are prohibited from being home-schooled. Instead, these children must be enrolled in either a public or nonpublic school. This requirement applies specifically to children placed in resource family homes or kinship care homes.
The legislation aims to ensure that children in the state's care receive a structured educational environment, as mandated by the bill. It is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
