            Senate Bill 2075 amends the Education Code to require a public school district to notify the parent or guardian of each student determined to have dyslexia or a related disorder, or determined to be at risk for dyslexia or other reading difficulties, of the program maintained by the Texas State Library and Archives Commission providing students with reading disabilities the ability to borrow audiobooks free of charge.
