Bill Summary
AN ACT relating to the adjustment of the average daily attendance of a school district due to unsafe conditions.
AI Summary
This bill modifies the Texas Education Code to allow the commissioner of education to adjust a school district's average daily attendance (ADA) when an unforeseen event creates unsafe conditions at a school campus, such as a power outage lasting more than one hour. Average daily attendance is an important metric used to calculate school funding, and this provision ensures that school districts are not financially penalized when extraordinary circumstances prevent students from attending school due to safety concerns. The bill will take effect on September 1, 2025, providing school districts with a mechanism to mitigate potential funding losses during unexpected and potentially disruptive events that might temporarily close a campus or prevent students from attending school.
