Senate Bill 587 amends the Education Code to make a student who was enrolled in a publicly funded school outside of Texas in the preceding school year and who is a dependent of a member of the U.S. military who has been deployed or transferred to Texas eligible to enroll full-time in courses provided through the state virtual school network. The bill removes the requirement for the commissioner of education to contract with a regional education service center for the service center to operate that network.
