TO:
Honorable Larry Taylor, Chair, Senate Committee on Education
 
FROM:
Ursula Parks, Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
SB1211 by Kolkhorst (Relating to procedures for the review and selection of certain instructional materials by public school districts and open-enrollment charter schools.), As Introduced

No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would require school districts and charter schools to adopt procedures for selecting certain instructional materials, including public notice, public access to materials proposed for adoption, and public meetings.  

Local Government Impact

There would be some administrative costs to providing public notices, providing public access to proposed instructional materials, and holding public meetings for local review for instructional materials scheduled for adoption. These costs would vary from district to district.
