Public Education

Committee Report (Unamended)

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE

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 seeks to address this issue and allow for a more efficient use of resources by removing the related requirement.

CRIMINAL JUSTICE IMPACT

It is the committee's opinion that this bill does not expressly create a criminal offense, increase the punishment for an existing criminal offense or category of offenses, or change the eligibility of a person for community supervision, parole, or mandatory supervision.

RULEMAKING AUTHORITY

It is the committee's opinion that this bill does not expressly grant any additional rulemaking authority to a state officer, department, agency, or institution.

ANALYSIS

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.

EFFECTIVE DATE

September 1, 2017.
