When schools have events the school needs to sell tickets at the gate as well as online and accept cash
This bill requires West Virginia public schools hosting paid athletic events to sell tickets at the school gate, accept cash payments, and offer online ticket purchases. It directly affects all public secondary schools in the state that charge admission for athletic events. The law mandates these three specific ticketing methods to ensure accessibility for all attendees. This amendment updates existing education code without altering eligibility rules or other school activity requirements.
