Dear Dr. Lane:

This correspondence is to inform you of changes to New Jersey’s Maintenance of Equity (MOEquity)
calculation as required under Section 2004 of the American Rescue Plan Act. New Jersey remains committed
to providing the necessary support for Local Educational Agencies (LEAs) to meet the requirements of
MOEquity for State Fiscal Year 2023. The Governor intends to sign recently enacted legislation, S3732, which
allocates additional state educational aid to LEAs this year. The New Jersey Department of Education
(Department) has therefore updated the LEA per pupil amounts from New Jersey’s initial MOEquity per pupil
calculation submission. The update also includes “Stabilization Aid” payments made last fall. The
Administration intends to make its second round of MOEquity payments this summer.

The attached spreadsheet identifies revised New Jersey MOEquity payments based upon these payments.

Please contact Chief of Staff, Julie Bunt at 609-376-3700 or Julie.Bunt@doe.nj.gov with any questions.

                                            Sincerely,




                                            Angelica Allen-McMillan, Ed.D.
                                            Acting Commissioner
