HB 2199 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to enrollment-based funding for the special education allotment under the Foundation School Program.

HB 2199 changes how Texas school districts receive state funding for special education under the Foundation School Program. It establishes different funding multipliers based on the type of instructional setting used for students (e.g., 5.0 for homebound instruction, 3.0 for hospital classes, 1.7 for nonpublic day schools). The bill also creates a capped funding stream ($10 million annually) for extended year programs required by federal law, calculated as 75% of the basic allotment multiplied by the instructional arrangement weight. This legislation directly affects school districts providing special education services, with changes taking effect September 1, 2025.
