Relating to certain charter school programs and students.

SB 2942 amends Texas Education Code provisions related to charter schools and adult education programs. It grants charter schools and their employees immunity from liability similar to traditional school districts (Section 1), lowers the age limit for adult education program eligibility from 60 to 50 years old (Section 2), and clarifies that students in these programs can earn high school diplomas by passing assessments approved by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (Section 3). The bill also modifies accountability frameworks to include career readiness metrics and streamlines approval processes for charter expansions (Sections 4-6). These changes directly affect charter schools, adult learners aged 18-50, and their educational pathways.
