The more than 180 New Jersey school board members and charter school trustees who were sent notices that they were being stripped of their posts for failing to comply with a new criminal background-check requirement were given a reprieve Friday.
Acting Education Commissioner Christopher Cerf "granted an extension to board members that received a letter of ineligibility earlier this week," said Justin Barra, a state Education Department spokesman. "Any board member that completes the fingerprinting requirement within two weeks - by Jan. 27 - will be eligible to remain on their board if they are cleared through the background check."
