Simple Solution. Brighter Futures. HB 3706 – DROPOUT RECOVERY July/August 2018 Presented by: Melissa Lemons
2 HB 3706 Dropout Recovery Online Program– Background HB 3706 (85 th) amends TEC 29. 081 to specify that a dropout recovery education program can be offered on-site at a school campus or through an internet based online program. TEC 29. 081(f) (existing subsection) specifies that the commissioner shall include students in attendance in a program under Subsection (e) in the computation of the district's average daily attendance (ADA) for funding purposes. The legislation expanding the dropout recovery programs to include online programs creates the need to ensure that all Texas public school students that participate in a dropout recovery program specified under TEC 29. 081(a) oncampus or online are able to generate funding for the LEA where they are enrolled.
3 HB 3706 Dropout Recovery Online Program– Background The TEA School Finance staff have determined that the best way to fund the online dropout recovery programs is to use the attendance accounting rules that are authorized by TEC 29. 0822 (Optional Flexible School Day Program - OFSDP).
4 HB 3706 Dropout Recovery Online Program– Background The OFSDP allows for the funding of students on the basis of school day minutes present and allows funding on the basis of a 45 minute minimum threshold on a given school day. The OFSDP program is also primarily designed for at-risk students to allow for flexibility of daily attendance to ensure opportunities for student success.
5 HB 3706 Dropout Recovery Online Program– Background Additionally, the legislature, under TEC 29. 959, has authorized the creation and operation of an open enrollment charter school that serves adult students, ages 26 -50, and has authorized the funding of the charter school based on student attendance.
6 HB 3706 Dropout Recovery Online Program– Background Given these statutory obligations, it is necessary for TEA to implement revisions to the TSDS PEIMS data collection requirements to ensure the capacity of the TEA to fund the online dropout recovery programs regardless of the basic eligibility of the students.
7 HB 3706 Dropout Recovery Online Program– Background While most LEAs are subject to the strict guidelines of student age eligibility of students being less than 26 years of age on September 1 of a given school year, the Excel Academy charter school is legislated to serve and be funded for students, age 26 -50, who would be ineligible for ADA funding at any other LEA.
