Relating to training requirements for certain governing bodies and administrators of public schools and making publicly available information regarding the expenditure of money by those public schools.
SB 2003 requires Texas public school boards and administrators to complete training on teaching methods, budgeting, school operations, and financial transparency. It also creates a new public online database showing all school spending details - including amounts, dates, payees, and expense categories like textbooks or staff salaries. The database must be searchable and organized to help the public track how school funds are used. This applies to all Texas public school districts and charter schools.
