S.B. No. 2073 |
|
||
relating to a reduction in required days of service for educators in | ||
public schools under certain circumstances. | ||
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS: | ||
SECTION 1. Section 21.401, Education Code, is amended by | ||
amending Subsection (b) and adding Subsection (c-1) to read as | ||
follows: | ||
(b) Except as provided by Subsection (c-1), an [ |
||
employed under a 10-month contract must provide a minimum of 187 | ||
days of service. | ||
(c-1) If a school district anticipates providing less than | ||
180 days of instruction for students during a school year, as | ||
indicated by the district's academic calendar, the district may | ||
reduce the number of days of service required by this section | ||
proportionately. A reduction by the district does not reduce an | ||
educator's salary. | ||
SECTION 2. Section 21.401, Education Code, as amended by | ||
this Act, applies only to a contract executed on or after the | ||
effective date of this Act. A contract executed before the | ||
effective date of this Act is governed by the law in effect on the | ||
date the contract was executed, and the former law is continued in | ||
effect for that purpose. | ||
SECTION 3. This Act takes effect immediately if it receives | ||
a vote of two-thirds of all the members elected to each house, as | ||
provided by Section 39, Article III, Texas Constitution. If this | ||
Act does not receive the vote necessary for immediate effect, this | ||
Act takes effect September 1, 2019. | ||
