relating to proportionality between state accountability | ||
performance indicators that apply to school districts and the | ||
State's share of the foundation school program for school | ||
districts. | ||
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS: | ||
SECTION 1. Section 39.054, Education Code, is amended by | ||
adding Subsection (f) to read as follows: | ||
(f) For purposes of evaluating school districts and campus | ||
performance under this section, the commissioner may not use | ||
state-required performance indicators in Section 39.053 in a | ||
proportion that exceeds the percentage of the State share of the | ||
Foundation School Program estimated in Section 42.001(c) in each | ||
fiscal year, and a school district may substitute locally selected | ||
or developed performance indicators. | ||
SECTION 2. Section 42.001, Education Code, is amended by | ||
adding Subsection (c) to read as follows: | ||
(c) The General Appropriations Act shall include a | ||
Legislative Budget Board projection for each fiscal year of the | ||
percentage of State revenue sources that is estimated to constitute | ||
the State's share of the Foundation School Program for school | ||
districts statewide and of the percentage of local tax revenues | ||
that is estimated to constitute the local share of the Foundation | ||
School Program for school districts statewide, excluding federal | ||
funds. In this section, the term "local tax revenues" includes | ||
revenue that a school district is required to transfer to the State | ||
to reduce the school district's wealth per student to the equalized | ||
wealth level, and the term "state revenue sources" does not include | ||
such revenue. | ||
SECTION 3. This Act takes effect September 1, 2019. |
