The Schools FIRST Communications Kit is updated for school districts use for 2010. Two indicators were deleted as a result of bills that passed during the 2009 Legislative Session.  With the passage of House Bill 3, 81st Legislative Session, the 65% instructional expenditure ratio requirement was repealed.  This resulted in the deletion of prior indicators 13 and 14 related to the 65% instructional expenditure ratio requirement for the ratings issued by the Texas Education Agency in the summer of 2010.  This also resulted in the deletion of provisions for posting the check register on the school district’s Internet site, under the 2010 amendment of Title 19, Texas Administrative Code, Chapter 109, Subchapter AA, Commissioner's Rules Concerning Financial Accountability Rating System.
