SUBJECT:
HB 3 Briefing
SUMMARY:
This item will include a briefing and overview of House Bill 3 (HB 3).
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Pre-K 4 SA advocates for high-quality, full-day pre-k. HB3 will help to increase access to full-day pre-k in the San Antonio community by providing additional funding to school districts. If the bill is approved as written, districts would receive funding to provide eligible children with full-day pre-k. While HB 3 will help to fill the gap in funding for full-day pre-k, it will not eliminate the need for Pre-K 4 SA.
ISSUE:
This item will include a presentation by a representative of Raise Your Hand Texas about proposed funding through HB3.
