AUTHOR'S / SPONSOR'S STATEMENT OF INTENT

According to interested parties, the continued monitoring of certain public school campuses that have been assigned a campus intervention team is unnecessary. H.B. 2263 addresses this issue and allows for a more efficient use of resources by removing the related requirement.

H.B. 2263 amends the Education Code to remove the requirement that a campus intervention team, for each year a public school campus is assigned an unacceptable performance rating, continue to work with the campus until the campus satisfies all performance standards under the domains of achievement indicators for a two-year period or until the campus satisfies all of those standards for a one-year period and the commissioner of education determines that the campus is operating and will continue to operate in a manner that improves student achievement.

H.B. 2263 amends current law relating to continued monitoring of certain public school campuses that have been assigned a campus intervention team.

RULEMAKING AUTHORITY

This bill does not expressly grant any additional rulemaking authority to a state officer, institution, or agency.
