Opportunity Scholarship Act

All children, regardless of their parents’ means, are deserving of a quality education. Even though New Jerseyans have a heavy tax burden and New Jersey spends more per student in school costs than almost any other state, too many of our schools are failing to meet the needs of the most vulnerable students. We can do better.

Under a 5-year pilot program, eligible children attending a chronically failing public school anywhere in New Jersey would receive scholarships to attend participating public or non-public schools. Districts containing these failing schools would be eligible to apply for Educational Innovation funds to improve their public schools.

The program is funded by corporate tax credits. No payments are made from the government to non-public schools or directly to parents. Also, there’s no added burden to taxpayers.

The program, then, is good for New Jersey, good for tax payers, good for public and non-public schools, good for parents, and most of all, good for the children of New Jersey. We urge you to contact our legislators to express your support by visiting www.WeCanDoBetter-nj.org.

We also urge you to join the NJ Catholic Conference’s Action Network at www.njcathconf.com. Click on “Faith in Action” and “Join our Action Network.” Thank you.
