More religious school tuition options for families
Effective upon passage, New Hampshire school boards can include religious schools in their approved private school tuition programs. Contracts must serve a district resident whose grade level is not offered at a district public school. The board must decide that the contract is in the child’s best interest. Districts can raise and approve spending for these contracts. The law does not require a contract or set its dollar amount.
