 BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
 SECTION 1.  Section 48.051, Education Code, is amended by
 amending Subsection (c) and adding Subsection (c-3) to read as
 follows:
 (c)  During any school year for which the maximum amount of
 the basic allotment provided under Subsection (a) or (b) is greater
 than the maximum amount provided for the preceding school year, a
 school district must use at least 30 percent of the amount, if the
 amount is greater than zero, that equals the product of the average

 student in average daily attendance for the current school year and
 the preceding school year to provide compensation increases to
 full-time district employees other than administrators as follows:
 (1)  75 percent must be used to increase the
 compensation paid to classroom teachers, full-time librarians,
 full-time school counselors certified under Subchapter B, Chapter
 21, and full-time school nurses, prioritizing differentiated
 compensation for classroom teachers with more than five years of
 experience; and
 (2)  subject to Subsection (c-3), 25 percent may be
 used as determined by the district to increase compensation paid to
 full-time and part-time district employees not described by
 Subdivision (1).
 (c-3)  A school district must use the amount described by
 Subsection (c)(2) to provide a compensation increase to each
 full-time and part-time district employee in an amount that
 increases an employee's salary or hourly wage from the preceding
