What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Current law requires a high school pupil to earn 1.5 credits in physical

education in order to be eligible for a high school diploma. This bill increases the

number of physical education credits needed to two. The bill also authorizes a school

board to adopt a policy granting a pupil credit in physical education for participating

in an extracurricular sport if the sport is sanctioned by the Wisconsin Interscholastic

Athletic Association.
