Relating to repealing the requirement for certain public school teachers and principals to attend a teacher literacy achievement academy.

HB 1148 repeals a requirement for kindergarten through third-grade teachers and principals at schools with those grades to attend a mandatory literacy training academy. The bill removes specific language from the Education Code that previously mandated this training, effective September 1, 2025 (if not passed with immediate effect). This change directly affects public school educators in early grades who would no longer face this attendance obligation. Other existing requirements - such as using phonics-based curricula and prioritizing effective teachers in K-2 - remain unchanged. The bill simplifies compliance by eliminating this specific training mandate.
