The bill would modify Chapter 29 of the Education Code related to the number of minutes that are required in a school year and the Commissioner of Education's authority to determine the number of minutes required for a full-day and half-day of operation and an alternative minimum amount of minutes of operation under certain circumstances.

The Texas Education Agency indicates that any additional cost associated with implementing the provisions of the bill could be absorbed within existing resources.

The bill would apply beginning with the 2017-18 school year.
