Amend CSHB 339 by striking page 5, line 23, through page 6,
line 3, and substituting the following:
(a-1) The department and the Texas Education Agency shall
enter into a memorandum of understanding under which the department
may access the agency's electronic enrollment records to verify a
student's enrollment in a public school. The memorandum of
understanding must specify that the department may only access
information necessary to verify the identity and enrollment status
of a license renewal applicant and only if a parent or guardian of
the applicant has provided written permission for the department to
access that information. Nothing in this subsection may be
construed to allow the release of information in violation of the
Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (20 U.S.C.
Section 1232g).
