AI Summary

This bill amends the Education Code to require public school students to compete in interscholastic athletic competitions based on their biological sex as stated on their official birth certificate or other government record. The bill allows female students to compete in male-designated competitions if a corresponding female competition is not offered. Additionally, the bill requires the University Interscholastic League (UIL), which oversees high school sports in Texas, to conduct a study on the effects of allowing a student to participate in an athletic competition designated for the opposite sex. The UIL must submit a report on the study's findings and any recommendations by December 1, 2026, and this section of the bill will expire on September 1, 2027.
