FISCAL NOTE, 78TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION
 
March 4, 2003

TO:
Honorable Florence Shapiro, Chair, Senate Committee on Education
 
FROM:
John Keel, Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
SB578 by Shapiro (Relating to awards granted under the Texas Advanced Placement Incentive Program.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted

No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

This conclusion is based on analyses provided by the Texas Education Agency.

Local Government Impact

No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.  The principal of a school participating in the Advanced Placement Incentive Program would be required to convene a team of at least three teachers annually to determine the use of funds awarded under the program at that school.  It is assumed that one additional meeting annually would not result in significant additional costs to school districts.
