Bill Summary

Relating to the transfer for an athletic participation purpose of a student from the school district of the student's residence to another district.

AI Summary

This bill amends the Texas Education Code to allow a student who is younger than 19 years old and eligible for enrollment in grades 9 through 12 to transfer to another school district for the purpose of athletic participation, as long as both the receiving district and the student's parent or guardian approve the transfer. The bill also prohibits the University Interscholastic League, which oversees high school athletics in Texas, from penalizing or sanctioning a student or a receiving school district if the transfer meets the requirements outlined in the bill. The bill applies starting with the 2023-2024 school year.
