AN ACT CONCERNING THE PARTICIPATION OF HOME-SCHOOLED STUDENTS IN EXTRACURRICULAR AND ATHLETIC ACTIVITIES OFFERED BY SCHOOL DISTRICTS.

HB 6203 requires Connecticut school districts to allow home-schooled students who live within a district to participate in the district's extracurricular activities and sports programs. The bill mandates that local school boards permit these students to join clubs, teams, and athletic events on the same basis as enrolled public school students. This policy change directly affects home-schooled children residing in Connecticut school districts, removing current barriers to their participation. The law applies only to activities offered by the district where the student lives, without altering home-schooling regulations.
