Relating to instructional facilities funding for certain open-enrollment charter schools.
HB 2782 changes how Texas open-enrollment charter schools receive funding for instructional facilities. It requires charter schools to receive per-student funding based on the state average local tax rate, but caps total annual funding at $60 million. This directly affects eligible charter schools by altering their state funding calculation method for facilities. The bill takes effect September 1, 2025, and modifies Education Code Section 12.106(d).
