The bill amends the Revised School Code by adding a new section, 1290, which mandates that if a public school charges a fee for admission to interscholastic athletic events, the school district's board or the board of directors of the public school academy must ensure that cash is accepted as a form of payment for these fees. This provision aims to enhance accessibility for all students and families wishing to attend such events.

Additionally, the bill defines "high school" as any school that offers at least one of the grades from 9 to 12. This clarification helps to specify the scope of the legislation and ensures that the requirements apply to all relevant educational institutions within the state.
