Texas Senate panel backs Bettencourt bill on dual credit growth
State Sen. Paul Bettencourt advances Senate Bill 251 from the Education Committee to the full Senate. The measure expands dual credit access by allowing high school students in participating districts to enroll in courses at public junior colleges. Since SB 1004 passed in 2015, Harris County colleges report double digit enrollment gains in dual credit programs. House sponsor Mayes Middleton pursues student led prayer policies in schools.
