SB 910 Tennessee Senate · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Education, Dept. of - As introduced, changes a department's reporting requirement, regarding local education agencies' and public charter schools' compliance with notice to an association that regulates interscholastic athletics of a student's placement in foster care who is seeking to participate in interscholastic athletics, from annually to upon the request of the education committee of the senate or the committee of the house of representatives having jurisdiction over education. - Amends TCA Title 49.

SB 910 modifies a Tennessee law requiring school districts and public charter schools to report compliance with foster youth athletic participation rules. Instead of submitting these reports annually, schools will now only need to provide them when specifically requested by the Senate or House education committees. The bill streamlines reporting requirements without changing the underlying rule about notifying athletic associations when foster youth seek to join sports teams. This change affects school districts and charter schools by reducing their administrative burden for this specific compliance check.
