SB272

Nevada SB272 revises eligibility rules for students transferring to new schools, allowing appeals for hardship cases.

Nevada SB272 revises provisions relating to interscholastic activities, particularly focusing on the eligibility of students transferring to new schools. The bill presumes a student transferring to another school is ineligible to participate in any sanctioned sport for 180 school days. However, it allows for an appeal process if the student can demonstrate a hardship, such as emotional distress, through evidence like an affidavit or testimony from a licensed professional. Additionally, the bill exempts children of military families from this transfer ineligibility rule.
