Relating to the collection and reporting of data regarding race and ethnicity by the Texas Education Agency.

Texas House Bill 2390 requires the Texas Education Agency (TEA) to collect and report student demographic data on race and ethnicity using specific, detailed categories. It mandates seven main categories (e.g., "Black or African American," "Hispanic or Latino") with subcategories (like "African American," "Mexican," or "Vietnamese") and allows students to select multiple categories. The TEA must publish this disaggregated data online in an accessible format while complying with federal privacy laws (like FERPA) by the 2027-2028 school year. This directly affects Texas public schools and students, as the data will inform reports on academic achievement, graduation rates, and resource access.
