What’s in it

This bill requires the board of directors of a school district and the authorities in charge of each accredited nonpublic school to adopt a policy prohibiting certain school-sponsored activities related to race. The bill provides that the policy shall prohibit all classes, events, competitions, and other school-sponsored activities that are intended to be only for students of a particular race; limit participation to students based on race; or use a student’s race as a factor in determining or assessing the student’s performance.
