Required Reporting on Salary Increases
House Bill 3 (HB 3), passed by the 86th Texas Legislature (Legislature) in 2019, required that all local education agencies (LEAs) report to the Legislature on salary or wage increases as a result of funding from HB 3, as follows:
SECTION 5.008. Not later than December 1, 2020, each school district shall submit to the legislature a report on salary or wage increases provided to district employees under Section 48.051(c), Education Code, as added by this Act, for the 2019-2020 school year. The report must include for each salary or wage increase:
(1) the employee’s position at the school district; and
(2) the amount of the increase.
TEA assisted LEAs with this statutory reporting requirement by providing a reporting template and posting the submitted files on this web page. The web page includes submissions from 1,025 LEAs. LEAs were not required to submit a file to TEA to meet the legislative reporting requirement; therefore, not all LEAs subject to the reporting requirement are listed on this page. If an LEA chose to report this information on its own, it could have done so in a number of different ways and would have submitted it directly to the Legislature.
TEA compiled statewide statistics based only on the compensation information that was submitted through the agency and listed on this page. TEA did not verify or audit any of the information submitted by LEAs through this process.
