SB 564 Texas Senate · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the removal of a conservator, board of managers, or other alternative management of a campus or school district in certain circumstances.

SB 564 modifies Texas school district management rules by requiring school boards to regain control of campuses or districts previously placed under conservators or boards of managers when all affected campuses achieve acceptable performance ratings. The bill specifies that management reverts to the school board if every campus that triggered the conservator appointment meets performance standards for two consecutive school years. It applies to districts where the commissioner appointed external management due to campus performance issues. The bill takes effect for the 2025-2026 school year, unless approved for immediate effect by a two-thirds legislative vote. This is a procedural change to existing accountability mechanisms, not a new policy.
