Non-Public / Virtual / Home School Sports Eligibility

In the spring of 2023, members of the Kansas House of Representatives and Kansas Senate passed legislation providing the opportunity for Non-Public School Students to participate in KSHSAA sponsored activities at their respective local public school..

Non-public school students are only eligible in the district (USD) where they reside.

Those students in grades 7-12 who are primarily enrolled in non-public schools may be deemed eligible for participation at their local public school upon the completion, submission, and approval of the Eligibility Application per House Substitute for Senate Bill 113.

Non-public school students seeking eligibility must complete all KSHSAA and local public-school requirements including, but not limited to:

• Completed Pre-Participation Physical exam prior to the first practice with such exam completed annually after May 1 (KSHSAA Handbook Rule 7-1-(1-7)).

• Concussion Education.

• Heat acclimatization (fall activities only).

• Parent/Guardian participation in parent/guardian team meeting.

• Submission of immunization records consistent with KSA 72-6262.

• Participation fees (if charged for all students by the public school).

• Other requirements as determined by the local public school Board of Education (if required for all students – i.e., required enrollment in a class to participate)
