IN RE:
SB199 by Shapleigh (Relating to providing training in personal financial literacy instruction for public school teachers.), As Introduced
No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
Local Government Impact
The bill would require regional education service centers to provide training and assistance pertaining to instruction in personal financial literacy as a core service available to school districts and campuses for purchase. The Texas Education Agency indicates that costs to develop and provide the required training and assistance would be expected to vary among service centers and that costs would be offset by charges passed on to participating school districts.
