Relating to the public school finance system.

This bill (SB 233) modifies Texas public school funding formulas, primarily affecting charter schools and traditional school districts. It requires charter schools to receive per-student funding based on statewide averages of traditional district funding, plus a $125 per student allotment, and aligns adult education program funding with charter school rates. The bill also updates trustee district boundaries for school boards to ensure compact, contiguous districts with near-equal population, with exceptions for large districts crossing county lines. These changes aim to standardize funding calculations and governance structures within the state’s public education system.
