The bill amends Section 48.109(c) of the Education Code regarding the eligibility for the gifted and talented student allotment under the Foundation School Program. The key change is that the percentage of a district's students in average daily attendance who are eligible for funding is increased from five percent to 10 percent. This adjustment aims to expand the funding opportunities for gifted and talented programs in Texas schools, allowing a greater number of students to benefit from these resources. The bill is set to take effect on September 1, 2025.
