18A:18A-3. Bid threshold.
18A:18A-3. a. When the cost or price of any contract awarded by the purchasing agent in the aggregate, does not exceed in a contract year the total sum of $17,500, the contract may be awarded by a purchasing agent when so authorized by resolution of the board of education without public advertising for bids and bidding therefor, except that the board of education may adopt a resolution to set a lower threshold for the receipt of public bids or the solicitation of competitive quotations. If the purchasing agent is qualified pursuant to subsection b. of section 9 of P.L.1971, c.198 (C.40A:11-9) the board of education may establish that the bid threshold may be up to $25,000. Such authorization may be granted for each contract or by a general delegation of the power to negotiate and award such contracts pursuant to this section.
b. Commencing in the fifth year after the year in which P.L.1999, c.440 takes effect, and every five years thereafter, the Governor, in consultation with the Department of the Treasury, shall adjust the threshold amount and the higher threshold amount which the board of education is permitted to establish as set forth in subsection a. of this section or the threshold amount resulting from any adjustment under this subsection, in direct proportion to the rise or fall of the index rate as that term is defined in N.J.S.18A:18A-2, and shall round the adjustment to the nearest $1,000. The Governor shall notify all local school districts of the adjustment no later than June 1 of every fifth year. The adjustment shall become effective on July 1 of the year in which it is made.
Any contract made pursuant to this section may be awarded for a period of 24 consecutive months, except that contracts for professional services pursuant to paragraph (1) of subsection a. of N.J.S.18A:18A-5 may be awarded for a period not exceeding 12 consecutive months.
Amended 1980, c.144, s.1; 1983, c.171, s.1; 1999, c.440, s.51.
18A:18A-3.1. Private driver education schools
Boards of education may enter into contracts with private driver education schools for the purpose of providing driver education courses to students on an individual or group basis, according to rules prescribed by the Commissioner of Education, when it is determined by the local board of education that the private driver education school can provide behind-the-wheel driver education that is substantially equivalent to that provided by the board of education, and at less cost than current or other proposed programs.
Each private driver education school shall hold a current license or certificate of approval issued by the Director of the Division of Motor Vehicles pursuant to P.L. 1951, c.216 (C. 39:12-1 et seq.), and be approved for the purposes of this act by the Commissioner of Education.

A spouse or child enlisting or inducted into military service shall not be considered a dependent during the military service.
~Employees~ shall not include persons employed on a short-term, seasonal, intermittent or emergency basis, persons compensated on a fee basis, or persons whose compensation from the public employer is limited to reimbursement of necessary expenses actually incurred in the discharge of their duties.
The contract shall include provisions to prevent duplication of benefits and shall condition the eligibility of an employee for coverage upon satisfying a waiting period stated in the contract.
The coverage of an employee, and of his dependents, if any, shall cease upon the discontinuance of his employment or upon cessation of active full-time employment in the classes eligible for coverage, subject to the provision as may be made in a contract by his employer for limited continuance of coverage during disability, part-time employment, leave of absence other than leave for military service or layoff, or for continuance of coverage after retirement.
A contract for group legal insurance entered into pursuant to this act shall not include any legal services attendant to a claim brought by a teaching staff member against a board of education or legal services for the defense of a teaching staff member facing disciplinary action pursuant to subarticle B of article 2 of chapter 6 of Title 18A of the New Jersey Statutes (N.J.S.18A:6-9 et seq.).

The continuance of coverage after retirement of an employee may be provided at the rates and under the conditions as shall be prescribed in the contract, subject, however, to the requirements hereinafter set forth in this section. The contribution required of a retired employee toward the cost of the coverage may be paid by him to his former employer or in any other manner as the employer shall direct.
Retired employees may be required to pay for the entire cost of coverage for themselves and their dependents at rates which are determined based upon the reasonable expected use of retired persons.

In providing for the continuance of coverage after retirement of employees and their dependents as authorized by section 2 of this act and notwithstanding any of the provisions of section 2 to the contrary, the employer may assume the entire cost of the coverage and pay all the premiums for employees who have retired after 25 years or more of service with the employer, including the premiums for their dependents, if any, under uniform conditions as the school district shall prescribe.
