Two important bills that expand opportunities to homeschoolers have been introduced in the Kentucky state legislature (House Bill 257 and Senate Bill 34). This legislation, known as “Play Fair, Kentucky!”, would allow homeschool students to join extracurricular activities in public schools. Currently, the Kentucky High School Athletics Association doesn’t allow homeschoolers into public school sports. Sports and extra-curricular activities provide children with the fundamental building blocks necessary to realize their full mental and physical potential. With the rise of homeschooling and the need for parents to have more options in their children’s education, it is time for Kentucky to join the 36 other states who have such laws in place. Play Fair, Kentucky! promotes the flourishing of all kids in our state and not just some.
It is about time. Homeschool discrimination must stop. Homeschool parents pay takes too!
Kentucky PLEASE Stop excluding these extraordinary kids who have parents that have made the choice to homeschool thier children. It is wrong on so many levels and time for homeschooled kids to have the same oppourtunities as everyone else. As mentioned above we ALL pay our property taxes that go to the schools so homeschool students should Not be rejected or discriminated against.
