SB 156 Texas Senate · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the reporting of information regarding high school performance acknowledgments earned by public school students.

SB 156 requires Texas public school districts to report specific student performance data through the state's PEIMS system at the end of each school year. It mandates tracking four categories: students enrolled in the foundation high school program, those pursuing the distinguished level of achievement, students in endorsement programs, and students earning designated performance acknowledgments. This reporting affects all public school districts in Texas and begins for the 2025-2026 school year. The bill focuses solely on data collection requirements for accountability, without altering student eligibility or program standards.
