STUDY FREE SCHOOL EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES

House Memorial 48 requests the Legislative Education Study Committee to form a task force to study making high school extracurricular activities - like band, theater, debate, and fine arts - free for all students. The task force, including education experts and school district representatives, would examine the feasibility of eliminating costs for equipment, uniforms, and transportation. It would report findings and recommendations by November 2025, but the memorial does not change current funding or require immediate action. This is a study request only, not a law that would make activities free.
