            House Bill 646 amends the Occupations Code to require that one of the psychologists or one of the psychological associates appointed to the Texas State Board of Examiners of Psychologists practice as a licensed specialist in school psychology. The bill specifies that this requirement does not affect the entitlement of a member serving on the board immediately before the bill takes effect to serve for the remainder of the member's term and requires the governor, as the terms of board members expire, to appoint or reappoint a member who meets the bill's requirement.
