relating to an adjustment of the average daily attendance of a | ||
school district with a certain student attendance rate. | ||
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS: | ||
SECTION 1. Section 48.005, Education Code, is amended by | ||
adding Subsection (a-1) to read as follows: | ||
(a-1) Notwithstanding any other adjustment to average daily | ||
attendance to which a school district may be entitled under this | ||
section, for a school year in which a district's student attendance | ||
rate is less than the average of the district's student attendance | ||
rate for the preceding three school years, the commissioner shall | ||
adjust the average daily attendance of the district by multiplying | ||
the district's average daily attendance by an amount equal to the | ||
quotient of the average of the district's student attendance rate | ||
for the preceding three school years divided by the district's | ||
student attendance rate. For purposes of this subsection: | ||
(1) the district's student attendance rate is the | ||
quotient of the sum of attendance by students in membership for | ||
purposes of average daily attendance for each day of the minimum | ||
number of days of instruction as described under Section 25.081(a) | ||
divided by the sum of the number of days of the minimum number of | ||
days of instruction for which those students are in membership; and | ||
(2) in calculating the district's student attendance | ||
rate for the preceding three school years, the commissioner shall | ||
use the three most recent preceding school years excluding any | ||
school year during which a statewide disaster declaration was | ||
issued by the governor under Chapter 418, Government Code. | ||
SECTION 2. This Act takes effect September 1, 2023. |
