Texas SB2667 mandates reporting of private school educator misconduct and imposes penalties.

Texas SB2667 amends the Education Code to require private schools to report educator misconduct to the State Board for Educator Certification. This includes situations where an educator has a criminal record or was terminated due to misconduct. The chief administrative officer must file a report within seven business days. Failure to report with intent to conceal misconduct is a criminal offense. The State Board can impose penalties on non-compliant officers and may not renew an educator's certification until penalties are paid.
