House Bill 1706 amends the Education Code to require the review conducted by the commissioner of education of written reports and other paperwork required of a school district by the Texas Education Agency (TEA) to include a comparison of the reports and paperwork required by state law and those required by federal law so that the commissioner can eliminate any reports or paperwork required by state law that duplicate the content of reports or paperwork also required by federal law. The bill includes among the duties of a school district superintendent ensuring that a copy of any report required by federal law, rule, or regulation is delivered to TEA.
