Enrolled Bill Summary

House Bill 106 amends the Education Code to require each school district's board of trustees to adopt a policy limiting redundant requests for information and the number and length of written reports that classroom teachers must prepare. The bill prohibits requiring a classroom teacher to prepare a written report other than those specifically listed and any other report required by law or rule or that is directly related to the teacher's professional duties. The bill also requires the board of trustees to review its teachers' paperwork requirements and to transfer to noninstructional staff any reporting task that can reasonably be performed by that staff.
