The New Jersey Catholic Conference and the New Jersey Network of Catholic School Families has continued to support increases in nonpublic school aid in the NJ State Budget in order to assist students and parents in nonpublic schools. The three areas in order of importance are as follows:
1. An increase in nonpublic school nursing services aid to $90.00 per student and the removal of language in the Governor’s Budget which limits the per-pupil amount to $77.20.
2. An increase in $20.00 in nonpublic school technology aid to restore the program to $40.00 per pupil.
3. An increase in the amount needed for initial examination and classification for students having specific learning difficulties.
St. Gregory the Great Academy participates in these programs and would benefit from the increased funding.
