Category:New Jersey Abbott Districts: Difference between revisions

Abbott Districts are public school districts in New Jersey covered by a New Jersey Supreme Court ruling that found that the education provided to urban school children was inadequate and unconstitutional. In Abbott II and in subsequent rulings, the Court ordered the State to assure that these children receive an adequate - and constitutional - education through implementation of a comprehensive set of programs and reforms, including standards-based education supported by parity funding; supplemental programs; preschool education; and school facilities improvements. Over 30 districts are included in the ruling, out of over 600 school districts statewide.
