A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT
relating to the applicability of certain requirements to certain
nonprofit organizations regarding before-school and after-school
programs established by school districts.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
SECTION 1. Section 33.9031, Education Code, is amended by
amending Subsection (c) and adding Subsection (c-1) to read as
follows:
(c) Except as provided by Subsection (c-1), a [A] school
district shall conduct a request for proposals procurement process
to enable the district to determine if contracting with a
child-care facility that provides a before-school or after-school
program, as defined by Section 42.002, Human Resources Code, to
provide the district's before-school or after-school program would
serve the district's best interests. Following the request for
proposals procurement process, the district may enter into a
contract with a child-care facility or implement a before-school or
after-school program operated by the district. If the district
enters into a contract with a child-care facility, the contract
must comply with the requirements of Section 44.031 and may not
exceed a term of three years.
(c-1) A school district is not required to conduct a request
for proposals procurement process under Subsection (c) to enter an
agreement or contract with a nonprofit organization for the use of
district facilities if the organization is exempt from the
child-care licensing requirements under Section 42.041, Human
Resources Code.
SECTION 2. This Act takes effect September 1, 2019.
