HJR 124 proposes a constitutional amendment to create the State School Health and Safety Fund as a special fund in the state treasury outside the general revenue fund. The fund would be administered by the Texas Permanent School Fund Corporation and used to support projects aimed at improving the physical and mental health of public school students and enhancing school safety. The fund would consist of appropriations, investment earnings, dedicated revenues, and excess public school funding. The amendment authorizes financial assistance, including grants, to school districts and charter schools, with rules for implementation to be determined by the legislature. The measure will be submitted to voters in the November 2025 election​.
