AI Summary

This bill amends current state law to define absences for students participating in programming or competitions sponsored by nationally recognized organizations and clubs that promote youth agricultural education, as well as absences related to exhibiting or participating in events associated with the annual state fair, as "excused absences." This change ensures that students are not penalized for missing school to participate in these educational and extracurricular activities. The bill also provides an effective date of July 1, 2023.
