S 724 (Codey): This bill establishes a three-year pilot program in six districts across the state that will provide general education students, who are not reading at grade level by the end of the second grade, with summer school instruction. The pilot will provide information on the effectiveness of summer instruction to help students learn to read; we encourage the legislature to look at other instructional strategies as well.

NJEA supports S 724 and encourages you to do the same.
