5. The grant program established pursuant to section 2 of P.L.2019, c.256 (C.18A:6-138) shall remain operational for at least four years and shall continue thereafter until such time as the Commissioner of Education determines that the program is not effective in achieving its purposes and provides a report to the Governor, and to the Legislature pursuant to section 2 of P.L.1991, c.164 (C.52:14-19.1), stating the reasons for his determination.

The report shall be submitted no later than April 1 of the fiscal year preceding the year in which the commissioner recommends ending the program.
