A bill for an act relating to the eligibility of students enrolled in nonpublic schools to participate in show choir and marching band provided by public schools, and including effective date provisions.

HF 2211 requires Iowa public school districts to allow students enrolled in nonpublic schools to join public school show choir or marching band if those activities are offered by the public school but not by the nonpublic school. This applies to students living within the public school district or in a neighboring district, based on agreements between school districts and nonpublic schools. Nonpublic school students participating under this bill must pay the same fee as public school students, with no higher fees allowed. The law takes effect immediately upon enactment.
