The bill, H.B. No. 3372, aims to prohibit certain personal services performed by school district administrators and establishes a civil penalty for violations. It introduces a new section, Section 11.006, to the Education Code, defining "administrator" as individuals with significant administrative responsibilities within a school district, excluding those primarily involved in classroom instruction. The bill specifically prohibits administrators from performing personal services or receiving financial benefits from businesses that conduct or solicit business with their school district, education businesses related to curriculum or administration, or other educational institutions.
Additionally, the bill imposes a civil penalty of $10,000 for each violation of this prohibition. It also repeals Section 11.201(e) of the Education Code, which may relate to previous regulations concerning administrators. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon receiving a two-thirds vote from both houses of the legislature; otherwise, it will take effect on September 1, 2025.
Statutes affected: Introduced: Education Code 11.201 (Education Code 11)
