Nonstatutory provisions.
(1) Interscholastic athletic association membership; 2021-22 school year. In the 2021-22 school year, no school district may be a member of an interscholastic athletic association unless, for purposes of determining pupil eligibility for the 2021-22 school year, the interscholastic athletic association does all of the following:
(a) If a request to waive the association's transfer rules is submitted on behalf of a pupil, considers the method by which educational programming was delivered during the 2020-21 and 2021-22 school years to be an extenuating circumstance that justifies the pupil transferring schools. For purposes of this paragraph, the “method by which educational programming was delivered” includes virtual instruction, in-person instruction, or a combination of virtual and in-person instruction.
(b) If a waiver is granted based on the extenuating circumstance described in par. (a), allows the pupil to participate in all levels of competition, including varsity competition, during the 2021-22 school year.
