Legislative Session: 82(R)

Senate Bill 226

Senate Author:  Nelson et al.

Effective:  6-17-11

House Sponsor:  Smith, Todd


            Under previous law, a school district was required to compile the results of the annual physical fitness assessment administered to students enrolled in grades 3 through 12 and provide the summary result, aggregated by grade level and any other category identified by commissioner rule, to the Texas Education Agency. Senate Bill 226 amends the Education Code to instead require a school district to provide the results of individual student performance on the physical fitness assessment to the agency. The bill expands the prohibition against including the names of individual students or teachers in the reported results to include prohibiting the results of individual student performance from containing a student's social security number or date of birth.
