TO ALLOW A RESIDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT TO PERMIT A PRIVATE SCHOOL STUDENT TO PARTICIPATE IN AN INTERSCHOLASTIC ACTIVITY AT THE RESIDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS.
SB 303 allows public school districts and open-enrollment public charter schools to permit private school students to participate in interscholastic activities. This means a private school student could potentially join sports teams or clubs at the public school they would typically be assigned to, or an open-enrollment public charter school within their district. The bill grants the resident public school or charter school the option to allow this participation under specific conditions. This creates a pathway for private school students to engage in activities offered by their local public schools.
