Trustees delegate Chapter 49 attendance-credit authority to superintendent for 2026–27
Summary
The board delegated authority under Texas Education Code to the superintendent to obligate the district for required Weighted Average Daily Attendance (WADA) purchases in 2026–27 via TEA’s Chapter 49 module, approving the necessary delegation 7-0.
The Calhoun County ISD Board of Trustees unanimously delegated to the superintendent the authority to obligate the district under Texas Education Code for the purpose of purchasing attendance credits (WADA) necessary in the 2026–2027 school year.
The board’s motion—made by Dana Dworaczyk and seconded by Brian Batts—specified delegation under TEC §11.1511(c)(4) solely for the purpose of obligating the district under TEC §48.257 and TEC Chapter 49, Subchapters A and D, and the rules adopted by the education commissioner under TEC §49.006. The district intends to purchase the credits through TEA’s Option 3 Agreement and Chapter 49 module, which automates the contract with contingencies.
The delegation allows the superintendent to submit the contract to TEA via the Chapter 49 module; the minutes do not record a contracted dollar amount for the credits.
