Education - As enacted, prohibits an LEA or public charter school governing body from participating in a public school athletic activity that is hosted by an organizer who does not allow students of a public school that is participating in the public school athletic activity to purchase tickets for admission to the public school athletic activity with cash, either in advance of the public school athletic event or at the site of the public school athletic event, or both. - Amends TCA Title 47, Chapter 18 and Title 49.

This bill requires organizers of public school athletic events to accept cash as a valid form of payment for admission and concessions. It specifically affects local education agencies, public charter schools, and any individuals or entities hosting sports events involving public school students. The law mandates that cash prices cannot exceed the cost of items purchased with credit or debit cards, and violations are treated as unfair business practices under state consumer protection laws. By enforcing this rule, the legislation aims to ensure that all students have equal access to attending games regardless of whether they have access to electronic payment methods.
