FISCAL NOTE, 81ST LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION
 
March 26, 2009

TO:
Honorable Rob Eissler, Chair, House Committee on Public Education
 
FROM:
John S. O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
HB171 by Olivo (Relating to consideration of mitigating factors in determining appropriate disciplinary action to be taken against a public school student.), As Introduced

No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.


Local Government Impact

No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.

Current law provides school districts with the discretion to consider certain mitigating factors when the district determines certain forms of punishment for a student.  Since this bill would require districts to consider these factors, some district costs could arise related to the documentation of such factors.
