AI Summary

  • Beginning with the 2025-2026 school year, the basic allotment per student under the Foundation School Program (currently $6,160) will be adjusted annually to increase based on the inflation rate

  • The inflation rate will be determined by the Texas Comptroller using the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics

  • If the inflation rate is negative (deflation), it will be treated as zero, preventing any reduction to the basic allotment from the previous year

  • The guaranteed yield formula under the Foundation School Program's tier two funding will also be updated to reference the inflation-adjusted basic allotment rather than the fixed $6,160 amount

  • The bill takes effect September 1, 2025
