Texas HB1212 amends the Public School Accountability System to prevent comparing schools in districts with different enrollment policies.

Texas HB1212 amends the Education Code to change how schools are compared in the Public School Accountability System. The bill prohibits the commissioner from comparing the performance of schools in districts where enrollment is based solely on a student's residence to those in districts where parents can choose a different campus. This change applies starting with the 2023-2024 school year. If the bill receives a two-thirds vote in both houses, it takes effect immediately; otherwise, it will take effect on September 1, 2025.
