| TX | Signed into law 06/2009 | P-12 | Section 26: Amends provisions regarding eligibility for full-time enrollment in courses provided through the state virtual school network.
Section 27: Clarifies that state virtual school network provisions in Chapter 30A of the Education Code do not apply to a virtual course provided by a school district only to district students if the course is not provided as part of the state virtual school network.
Section 28: Adds Section 30A.006. Provides that an electronic course or program that was offered or could have been offered during the 2008-09 school year may be offered during a subsequent school year through the state virtual school network. Authorizes the commissioner to amend any provision of Chapter 30A as necessary to provide for the transition of an electronic course or program from the authority to operate under former Section 29.909 ("Electronic Courses") to the authority to operate under Chapter 30A ("State Virtual School Network").
Section 29: Existing provisions require a charter school to be rated "recognized" or higher to act as a provider school, (providing an electronic course through the state virtual school network to students in that school or another school). Amendments specify that a charter school campus must be rated "recognized" or higher to act as a provider school. Permits a campus rated "academically acceptable" to act as a provider school to students receiving educational services through a juvenile probation department, the Texas Youth Commission, or the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. Specifies that a charter school campus may serve as a provider school to a student in another school only through an agreement with the district in which the student resides, or, in the case of a corrections education student, through an agreement with the applicable agency.
Section 30: Specifies that a course offered through the state virtual school network must be aligned with state standards for a grade level at or above grade 3.
Section 31: Shifts responsibility for paying for evaluation of electronic courses from submitting district, charter school or higher education institution to the state education agency. Provides that if available agency funds are insufficient to pay the costs of evaluating and approving all electronic courses submitted for evaluation and approval, the agency must give priority to paying the costs of evaluating and approving courses that satisfy high school graduation requirements; that would likely benefit a student seeking college admission; that allow students to earn college credit or advanced credit (including dual credit courses); courses most likely to be beneficial to students receiving educational services through a juvenile probation department, the Texas Youth Commission, or the Texas Department of Criminal Justice; and courses in subject areas designated as commonly experiencing a shortage of teachers. If the state education agency has insufficient funds to evaluate and approve a course developed and submitted by a district, charter school or postsecondary institution, permits the district, charter school or postsecondary institution to pay the evaluation and approval costs in order to ensure that evaluation of the course occurs. Eliminates provisions providing definition of whether a district, charter school, or institution of higher education developed an electronic course.
Section 32: Entitles a student who transfers from one educational setting to another after beginning enrollment in an electronic course to continued enrollment in the course.
NOTE: This bill also repeals Section 29.909, "Electronic Courses."

Section 42.159 provides that for each student who completes a semester-long electronic course that meets a high school graduation requirement and is provided through the state virtual school network as part of a normal course load, the school district or open-enrollment charter school that provided the course is entitled to a $400 allotment, and the district or charter school in which the student is enrolled is entitled to an $80 allotment as reimbursement for associated administrative costs. Specifies that allotment for a completed state virtual school network course that exceeds a normal course load (including a course offered during the summer) must be in an amount determined by the commissioner. Authorizes the commissioner to set aside up to 50% of allotments for normal course load and exceeding course load electronic courses to pay the costs of providing state virtual school network courses allowing students to recover credits for courses in which they were previously unsuccessful. Also authorizes a portion of the set-aside to pay the costs of credit recovery courses for students in alternative education settings, including disciplinary and juvenile justice alternative education programs, and students under the supervision of a juvenile probation department, the Texas Youth Commission, or the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. Bars partial funding from being awarded for any student who begins but does not complete an electronic course. Requires the commissioner to adopt rules regarding specified provisions, including the allotment of district funds for a student who transfers schools or districts after beginning an electronic course.
Section 42.160 provides districts and open-enrollment charter schools an allotment of $275 for each student in average daily attendance in grades 9-12. Provides clarification on allotments for a district required to reduce its wealth per student to the equalized wealth level. Directs the commissioner to adopt rules, including rules related to the permissible use of such funds allocated to an open-enrollment charter school.
NOTE: This bill also repeals Section 29.909, "Electronic Courses."

Requires the commissioner to establish by rule qualifications
and professional development requirements applicable to college instructors providing dual credit courses for high school and college credit through
the state virtual school network.
Section 36: Authorizes districts or open-enrollment charter schools to offer professional development courses to teachers seeking authorization to teach electronic courses through the state virtual school network. Requires the state education agency to review each district or charter school's professional development course to ensure it meets state-set quality standards before the course may be offered.
Section 37: Specifies that for a full-time grade 3-8 course offered through the state virtual school network, the district or charter school is eligibile for federal, state and local funding for that student at a level equal to the funding the district or school would otherwise receive for the student. Provides the student's average daily attendance may be calculated based on hours of contact with the student, student's completion of a course, or a method approved by the commissioner.
Section 38: Authorizes a district or charter school to charge a fee to a student who enrolls in a state virtual school network course during the summer. Authorizes a district or charter school that is not providing the course to charge a nominal fee to a student who enrolls in a state virtual school network course that exceeds the course load normally taken by students in the equivalent grade level.
NOTE: This bill also repeals Section 29.909, "Electronic Courses."
