Relating to the reporting of private school educator misconduct; providing an administrative penalty; creating a criminal offense.
SB 2667 requires private schools in Texas to report specific educator misconduct to the State Board for Educator Certification and notify parents when allegations occur. It mandates reporting for incidents like abuse, sexual contact with students, drug offenses, financial fraud, or crimes on school property, and specifies that schools must inform parents if an educator was terminated or resigned after an investigation. Failure to report triggers administrative penalties, and repeated failures could become a criminal offense. The law directly affects private schools and educators who would need teaching certification in public schools. It creates a new reporting obligation distinct from existing public school requirements.
