Relating to the parental notification regarding public school teacher qualifications.
This bill requires Texas public school districts to notify parents in writing if a teacher without proper certification is assigned to a classroom for more than 30 consecutive days (excluding the first 30 days of the school year). Parents must receive this notice in their primary language if needed, and districts must also publish teacher certification details online for public access. The law applies to all public school districts and takes effect September 1, 2025. It directly affects parents of students in affected classrooms and school districts required to comply with these transparency rules.
