FROM:	John Keel, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:	SB1038 by Barrientos (Relating to the transfer of the Communities In Schools program.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted

No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would transfer administration of the Communities in Schools Program to the Texas Education Agency (TEA).  As a significant part of the funding for the program currently is a set-aside from the Foundation School Program, TEA does not anticipate any significant net implications for agency or state expenditures as a result of the transfer.

Local Government Impact

No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
