Amend CSHB 5, on page 48, line 22, by adding the following
subsections:
(6) identify categories of students, including but
not limited to students who are educationally or economically
disadvantaged, who are identified as at risk of dropping out of
school, or who are of limited English-speaking proficiency, whose
performance on assessment instruments, graduation rates, or higher
education enrollment and completion rates, is lower than the
performance of students in the state as a whole;
(7) identify instructional arrangements,
technologies and other strategies that have a proven record of
improving student performance generally within each category
identified above to the level of performance established under
Sec. 41.008(c);
(8) identify the average higher incremental costs of
those arrangements, technologies, and strategies identified
pursuant to subdivision (7) compared to the costs of educating the
general population that is not in the identified categories above.
(9) conduct a statistical analysis, controlling for
all other factors, of the additional resources necessary to
accomplish the outcomes in subdivision (7).
(10) propose appropriate weights or other formula
adjustments necessary to provide each district with the resources
to offer, without having to increase their enrichment tax rate,
such successful arrangements and strategies to all such students in
the district based on subdivisions (8) and (9).
