Relating to a study of costs associated with dual credit courses offered at public high schools.
Estimated Two-year Net Impact to General Revenue Related Funds for SB863, Committee Report 1st House, Substituted: a negative impact of ($301,140) through the biennium ending August 31, 2021.
SB 863 would require the Texas Education Agency to conduct a study on the costs regarding dual credit programs. The study would include data regarding costs of dual credit programs, identifying sources of funding, and consulting with relevant stakeholders. The TEA would be required to submit a report every other year. The TEA would be able to carry out this study only if the legislature decides to fund it.
Texas Action remains neutral on SB 863 because it does not promote or violate any of our principles.
