Relating to the fast growth allotment under the public school finance system.
SB 1552 amends Texas school finance rules to change how school districts qualify for extra state funding based on rapid student enrollment growth. It creates two methods for calculating eligibility: (1) comparing current enrollment to enrollment from six years prior (minus 250 students), or (2) using average annual growth over three years if a district’s growth rate ranks in the top 25% statewide. This directly affects school districts experiencing significant enrollment increases, providing them with additional state funding under the "fast growth allotment" formula. The change takes effect September 1, 2025.
