Bill Analysis

HB 4310 would require school districts to ensure sufficient time for teachers in order to teach essential knowledge and skills when designing the scope and sequence of a required subject for every grade level. School districts would be prohibited from penalizing teachers if the teacher does not teach in order or determines that they need to spend more time on a topic. 

Vote Recommendation Notes

Texas Action remains neutral on HB 4310 because it does not impact our principles. However, this does appear to be sound public policy.
