IN RE:
HB2890 by Johnson, Julie (Relating to the terminology used to refer to an individualized education program team.), As Introduced
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill directs the Texas Education Agency and other state agencies to end the use of the phrase "admission, review, and dismissal committee" and instead to use the phrase "individualized education program team" when producing new regulations and materials.
Under the assumption that state agencies would interpret the legislation to prospectively require the use of individualized education program terminology in the future, this analysis assumes that the bill's requirements could be absorbed using existing resources.
Local Government Impact
Under the assumption that school districts and charter schools would interpret this legislation to prospectively require the use of individualized education program terminology, no significant fiscal implication is anticipated.
