Relating to participation in cocurricular and extracurricular activities offered by school districts by pupils who open enroll for purposes of receiving educational instruction and course content primarily over the internet

This bill relates to participation in cocurricular and extracurricular activities offered by school districts by pupils who open enroll for purposes of receiving educational instruction and course content primarily over the internet. Current law allows pupils who participate in open enrollment for purposes of receiving educational instruction and course content primarily over the internet to participate in any cocurricular or extracurricular activities offered in the pupil’s grade or group and sponsored by the pupil’s district of residence under the same conditions and requirements as the pupils enrolled in the district of residence. The bill provides that such pupils may only participate in such cocurricular or extracurricular activities if the school district attendance center providing the educational instruction and course content primarily over the internet does not sponsor such cocurricular or extracurricular activities.18(12).
