FISCAL NOTE, 87TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION
 
April 16, 2021

TO:
Honorable Harold V. Dutton, Jr., Chair, House Committee on Public Education
 
FROM:
Jerry McGinty, Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
HB1613 by Lopez (Relating to the deadline for certain public school teachers and principals to attend a teacher literacy achievement academy.), As Introduced

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

It is assumed that the costs associated with the bill's provisions relating to the deadline for certain public school teachers and principals to attend a teacher literacy achievement academy could be absorbed using existing resources.

Local Government Impact

School districts and charter schools select from and incur the costs for a $400/participant blended, asynchronous model or a $3000/participant comprehensive model, which includes synchronous learning sessions and job-embedded coaching. While there are costs for districts and charter schools related to the reading academies, it is not anticipated that there would be additional costs as a result of extension of the current deadline.
