A bill for an act relating to education, including by modifying provisions related to the physical education and physical activity requirements applicable to certain specified students and by implementing a graduation requirement related to participation in a cocurricular or extracurricular activity.

This bill modifies Iowa's education laws to require all high school students (grades 9-12) to participate in at least one cocurricular or extracurricular activity as a condition for graduation. It defines "cocurricular" activities (like student government or theater) and "extracurricular" activities (like sports or band) in detail, mandating school districts to ensure students meet this requirement. The bill also updates physical education rules, adding self-defense content for grades 6+ and adjusting weekly activity time requirements, but the new graduation requirement is the primary policy change directly affecting students. School districts will fund this through existing state aid, per the bill's funding provisions.
