Enrolled Bill Summary

House Bill 415 amends the Education Code to exclude the time during which a student attends a course for which the student receives joint high school and junior college credit from the number of hours counted toward the minimum requirement for the student's consideration as a full-time student when calculating a school district's average daily attendance for school finance formula purposes. The provision expires September 1, 2004. The bill also repeals a provision that required the commissioner of education and the commissioner of higher education to develop a mechanism to identify and eliminate duplication of state funding when state funding is provided to both a school district and a public junior college for a student enrolled in a course at the junior college for dual credit.
