H.B. No. 2757 amends the Education Code by adding a new subsection (c-3) to Section 25.001, which allows school districts to adopt a policy for determining the age of children for admission purposes. Specifically, this policy applies to children whose parents or guardians are active-duty members of a foreign military force stationed in Texas. Under this new provision, these children can establish their eligibility for school admission by demonstrating that they will reach the required age during the school year for which they are seeking admission, despite the existing age requirements outlined in Subsections (a) and (b).

The bill is set to take effect for the 2025-2026 school year and will become effective immediately if it receives a two-thirds vote from both houses of the legislature. If not, the bill will take effect on September 1, 2025. This legislation aims to provide flexibility for the children of foreign military members, ensuring they have access to education in Texas.
