Relating to the salary and wages paid to public school employees.

HB 1413 requires Texas public school districts to pay certain educators a minimum monthly salary increase of $400 for the 2025-2026 school year. It directly affects classroom teachers, full-time librarians, certified school counselors, and full-time school nurses by guaranteeing their 2025-2026 salary is at least $400 above what they would have earned under the previous year's pay scale. The bill creates new state aid funding, providing $4,000 per qualifying employee to help districts cover these costs. This provision expires September 1, 2025, and applies only to the 2025-2026 school year.
