House Bill 525 amends the Education Code to require the Texas Education Agency (TEA) to collect data each year from school districts and open-enrollment charter schools through the Public Education Information Management System (PEIMS) relating to the enrollment of military‑connected students, including the number of active duty military‑connected students and National Guard or reserve military-connected students enrolled in the school district or charter school on a date at the beginning of the school year and a date at the end of the school year specified by TEA. The bill prohibits the data from being used for purposes of determining a campus or district performance rating with regard to accreditation.
