Relating to the adjustment of the average daily attendance of a school district due to unsafe conditions.
HB 3342 adjusts how Texas school districts calculate their average daily attendance when unsafe conditions disrupt operations. It requires the state education commissioner to adjust attendance records for districts affected by unforeseen events like power outages lasting over an hour. This change prevents districts from losing state funding due to lower attendance counts caused by external disruptions beyond their control. The bill directly affects school districts facing campus safety issues that force temporary closures or remote learning. It takes effect September 1, 2025, to implement this attendance adjustment mechanism.
