Prohibit adverse action against middle or high school students participating in travel sports.
The bill amends the West Virginia Code to prevent the West Virginia Secondary School Activities Commission from taking adverse action against middle or high school student athletes who participate in travel sports. It ensures that such students are not prohibited from participating in school-sponsored activities. The commission is also barred from engaging in discriminatory actions against these students. The bill applies to students who participate in travel sports while also attending school, provided they give precedence to their school programs in case of scheduling conflicts.
