Relating to the employment of technical assistant superintendents by regional education service centers.

SB 2931 requires regional education service centers serving school districts with fewer than 3,000 students to employ technical assistant superintendents at a ratio of one per three qualifying districts. These superintendents must support small districts in accessing state and federal programs, including teacher incentive funds, school safety grants, the Rural Pathway Excellence Partnership (R-PEP) program, and effective schools frameworks. The bill applies starting the 2025-2026 school year, with the commissioner authorized to monitor compliance. It directly affects small school districts and regional education centers in Texas.
