This bill repeals the provisions concerning participation in interscholastic activities as outlined in an uncodified act from 2015.

  • Uncodified Section 1 of Acts 2015, No. 863

    The Arkansas Activities Association (AAA) shall allow a private school student attending a AAA member private school that does not offer grades ten through twelve (10-12) to participate on an athletic team during the spring semester at a public high school the student will attend during the next school year if: (1) The private school does not offer the athletic program; and (2) The student meets the participation requirements, except for attendance requirements, by the school district in which the student seeks to participate on an athletic team that is in the resident school district in which the student’s parent or guardian resides as determined under § 6-18-202. (b) If a student participates on an athletic team during the spring semester at a public high school as allowed under subsection (a) of this section and the student does not attend the public high school in the next school year, the student shall be ineligible to participate in AAA sanctioned athletics for one (1) year unless the student’s parent or guardian make a complete and bona fide change of domicile move in accordance with the Arkansas Activities Association guidelines for public and nonpublic change of domicile.

    This change eliminates the regulations allowing certain private school students to participate in public high school athletic programs.
