To strictly enforce that you would have to define it. Then that means it would get defined improperly. Stop trying to make more laws. Laws don't do schite.
Majority of Texas teachers are considering quitting

Rules for teacher conduct aren't "laws". They're guidelines laid down by school boards. >obvious<
Should we then have no rules for what teachers may or may not do? Just let them indoctrinate kids with gender-switching propaganda, CRT propaganda, White self-hatred? Because we can't "make more laws", right? I guess we should just let our public school employees f**k over our kids any way they see fit because "laws" are bad.

So you want rules that aren't laws but are strictly enforced but aren't defined. That'll work.
Teacher story of the day.
My wife has 28 students in her 3rd grade class. She has one kid that has a severe behavior issue. When I was in school these kids would be grouped with the special ed kids and not in class with "normal students".
Bad kid flat out refuses to do anything. He jacks with the other kids and does anything in class to get attention. Yesterday he had a ring on. He would rub the ring on his desk to heat it up and then press it against other kids to try and burn them.
Today he spent the entire day drawing dicks on whatever he possibly could. My wife said he drew about 300 dicks; she did find it funny that he would expend that much energy on drawing dicks and not just doing his class work.
The specialists at the school that handle these kids said they can't deal with him for another week because they are in training until then. The admin just tells my wife to be firm with him and be creative, but they won't intervene. The mom doesn't think he has a behavior problem and think the school just wants to label him. Talking to mom is useless.
My wife can't physically touch the kid in any way. So his deeds go unpunished and there is nothing anyone can do about it.
Its insanity and this is why teachers quit.

The Texas Education Code has a little known section that allows a teacher to remove any student. For any reason. Period. While there could be backlash from the administration, it’s unlikely to be very sever as they need teachers more than ever.
I learned this when taught HS Physics. The BS paperwork teachers have to do and free labor they get saddled with is ridiculous.
Id love to teach again, but likely for a small school (that has school marshals).
the 12% of teachers leaving Houston ISD every year hasn't made any significant changes in the way they operate, it would seem. Does that need to double? When teachers are faced with 50-60 kids per class, will that be enough to get them to walk if they're facing serious issues?
They could quit and start private schools or private tutoring. That's how my son's new school started. Founder and most/all her teachers came out of public education disillusioned with how they are run.
The scandal is that we don't yet have a statewide school voucher system in Texas. But the public pressure to have that keeps getting stronger. Something's got to give soon. And when it happens there'll be a flood of students fleeing public schools, especially the really bad ones.
I would love if the public school money allotted for my kid to attend could follow him. Private school ain't cheap, but we found one that is reasonable, and doesn't charge as much as public schools get per-kid. Still worth it after the shit we dealt with last year. Our options were private, or home school, and actual schooling is where my son would succeed in most.
Hopefully people without school age children will be able to donate vouchers to someone going to a school of their choice. Would hate to still be paying taxes to just whatever the local public school is.
I had a cousin that was a teacher in Madisonville. One student had a crossed eye. The school district offered to pay to have it corrected. The parents said NO!!. They were getting gov. assistance for his handicap. Maybe the same with this students behavior problem.
My daughter has been teaching in a Montessori school and going to school herself to be a teacher. She told me the other day that she wants to try something else. She doesn't want to deal with that BS but she is so good at working with kids.

I don't know the situation in Texas because I never lived there, never had kids attend Texas schools. But if there is a massive walk away from the profession it would seem that would be a wonderful employment opportunity for teachers from places in Blue states that have turned into sh_t holes. Me? I'd rather have Texan teachers born and raised there with at least some residual local core values. Before I transferred from Seal Beach CA to the Western Panhandle of Florida my kids were in the California school system in the mid-80's. That was before Wokeism took over. The Florida school district my kids were in was far advanced academically and had a neutral political agenda.
My advice for Texas is to do what you can to retain local talent and not have replacements come in from Portland, Semi Valley, LA, NYC or Chicago.

Would love to see 100% vouchers for ALL public schools. The slacker districts will wither into oblivion while those districts actually preparing kids for the world will flourish. (Darwinism)
But to your point about donating vouchers, It doesn’t work that way. The voucher is for an enrolled student, not a taxpayer.
There was a Supreme Court ruling some time ago that said you have to pay school taxes even if you don’t have kids because you do receive a benefit, that of an improving local society.
