HB 16 (Prince-D-Augusta) This
bill amends O.C.G.A. § 20-2-316.3 to require that no high school which receives
funding under QBE shall participate in or sponsor interscholastic sports events
conducted by any athletic association unless the association allows students
enrolled in magnet schools to try out for and participate on an athletic team
of their resident school where the magnet school does not offer such athletic team. They would only be eligible to participate at
the school they would normally attend if they were not enrolled in the magnet
school and provided they must be subject to the same standards and comply with
the same requirements as apply to students enrolled in such public high school. |
