Honorable Dan Huberty, Chair, House Committee on Public Education

John McGeady, Assistant Director Sarah Keyton, Assistant Director Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:
HB1324 by Frank (Relating to equal opportunity for access by home-schooled students to University Interscholastic League sponsored activities; authorizing a fee.), As Introduced
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
It is assumed that the provisions of the bill relating to access by home-schooled students to University Interscholastic League sponsored activities could be absorbed using existing resources.
Local Government Impact
Local school districts may experience costs associated with uniforms, equipment, travel, and other factors related to student participation in UIL activities. To the extent that a school district does not charge its students fees to cover costs associated with UIL activities, that school district could experience increased costs due to participation in UIL activities by home-schooled students. There could also be some administrative costs associated with collecting academic performance information for the purpose of verifying the academic eligibility of home-schooled students.
