Senate Bill 832 amends the Education Code to require each open-enrollment charter school to appoint at least one employee to act as a liaison officer to facilitate the enrollment or transfer of a child in the area served by the charter school who is in the conservatorship of the state. The bill requires each school district and open-enrollment charter school to submit the name and contact information of the district's or charter school's liaison to the Texas Education Agency (TEA) in a format and under the schedule determined by the commissioner of education and requires TEA to provide information to the liaisons on practices for facilitating the enrollment or transfer of children who are in the conservatorship of the state.
