IN RE:
HB2806 by Ashby (Relating to requiring school districts and open-enrollment charter schools to report certain information regarding expanded learning opportunities.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would amend the Education Code to require school districts and open-enrollment charter schools to report through the Public Education Information Management System (PEIMS) for each campus of the district or school the availability of expanded learning opportunities and the number of students participating in each of the categories of expanded learning opportunities listed in Section 33.252(b), Education Code.
The Texas Education Agency indicates the agency could absorb the costs associated with the provisions of the bill with existing resources.
Local Government Impact
School districts and open-enrollment charter schools would incur costs associated with the additional reporting requirements. Certain districts may experience costs resulting from the need to update software to comply with the bill's requirements. However, costs would vary among districts based on the number of campuses and existing policies and resources.
