House Bill 88 amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Section 49-3-359(a), by increasing the funding limit for teachers' supplies from two hundred dollars ($200) to five hundred dollars ($500). This change aims to provide teachers with greater financial support for classroom supplies, thereby enhancing the educational resources available to them.
Additionally, the bill clarifies that it does not appropriate any funds, meaning that no funds will be obligated or spent under this act unless they are specifically allocated by the General Appropriations Act. The provisions of this act are set to take effect on July 1, 2025, contingent upon the public welfare.
