Meeting 22:1 Ratio How long are elementary schools given to organize kindergarten through grade 4 classes to make sure they don exceed the 22:1 ratio?
For the 2001-2002 school year, a school district is required to complete a class size survey by September 7, 2001. If class size is in excess of 22:1 at that time, the district must apply for a waiver from the 22:1 requirement by October 9, 2001. More information about class size waivers may be obtained by contacting the Waivers unit at TEA. You may access the 22:1 statute by reading Section 25.112 of the Texas Education Code.
