Introduced Text

Prohibits scheduling high school sports events on the same day as graduation or prom.

The bill amends the South Carolina Code to prohibit the High School League or similar bodies from scheduling athletic events on the same day as a school's graduation ceremony or prom. Any events scheduled in violation of this prohibition are declared void, and the outcomes or forfeitures of such events are nullified. This change aims to ensure students can fully participate in both academic and social events without conflict.
