Uniform Minimum Chart of Accounts

This handbook establishes the chart of accounts for use by New Jersey school districts, charter schools, renaissance school projects, and for Approved Private Schools for Students with Disabilities (APSSD). “Chart of accounts” means a classification structure for the accounting system that permits the standardization of reported financial data facilitating analyses within and between district boards of education and APSSDs, and on a nationwide basis.
