Bill Summary

The purpose of this bill is to repeal the requirement that the West Virginia Secondary School Activities Commission modify its rules to allow high school students to transfer schools and retain athletic eligibility, so that the Commission may modify its rules relating to athletic eligibility of transfer students in its discretion.

AI Summary

This bill repeals a specific section of West Virginia law that previously required the West Virginia Secondary School Activities Commission, an organization that oversees high school athletic and extracurricular activities, to change its rules to allow students who transfer between high schools to keep their athletic eligibility. By repealing this requirement, the bill grants the Commission the discretion to make its own decisions regarding the athletic eligibility of transfer students without being mandated by state law to allow it.
