Description:  During the 89th Regular Legislative Session, Texas lawmakers passed Senate Bill 12, which amends the Education Code and requires the superintendent of a school district, not later than September 30 of each year, to certify to the Texas Education Agency (TEA) that the district is in compliance with Texas Education Code §§ 11.005 and 28.0022.
At this time, TEA has not issued a certification form or submission process. However, in an effort to comply with the law, administration requests that the Board of Trustees acknowledge compliance so that the superintendent may submit the certification once TEA provides the process.

• The district is in compliance with § 11.005 in that it does not engage in or assign staff to "diversity, equity, and inclusion" duties prohibited by law. The requirements of SB 12 have been shared with staff through attending each campus staff meeting and sharing presentation of SB12 and the contents. Policies related to this law are being drafted/updated accordingly.
• The district is in compliance with § 28.0022 regarding instructional prohibitions. Board Policy EMB (Legal) and EMB (Local) address these prohibitions, and this information has been shared with staff meetings.
