TITLE 19.EDUCATION

Part 2. TEXAS EDUCATION AGENCY

Chapter 100. CHARTERS

Subchapter A. OPEN-ENROLLMENT CHARTER SCHOOLS

19 TAC §100.1

The State Board of Education (SBOE) proposed an amendment to §100.1 as published in the March 26, 2004, issue of the Texas Register (29 TexReg 3028). Section 100.1 establishes the application and selection procedures and criteria for open-enrollment charter schools. The proposed amendment would have changed the process for reviewing charter school applications that do not contain all required information and documentation by eliminating the review by the SBOE committee responsible for charter schools from the process.

During its meeting on May 7, 2004, the SBOE took action to retain language in §100.1 that reads, "including a process for review by the SBOE committee responsible for charter schools," that had been proposed for removal. Therefore, the proposed amendment to §100.1 published in the Texas Register in March 2004 is withdrawn.

Filed with the Office of the Secretary of State on May 17, 2004.
