IN RE:
SB1854 by Uresti (Relating to requiring the review of public school district paperwork to limit paperwork requirements.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would require each district-level committee to review paperwork requirements imposed on classroom teachers and make recommendations to the district board of trustees not less than once every six months.
The bill would take effect September 1, 2017, or immediately if passed with the necessary voting margins.
Local Government Impact
This bill's provisions would require each district-level committee to prepare a report and make a recommendation to the district board of trustees. TEA estimates these reports could be prepared at nominal cost, but some administrative costs could be incurred depending on the report's requirements.
