The bill H. 4772 aims to amend the South Carolina Code of Laws by adding Section 59-1-339, which prohibits the scheduling of high school sports events on the same day as the school's graduation ceremonies or prom. This legislation is intended to ensure that students and their families can fully participate in these significant events without conflict from athletic competitions.

Under the proposed law, any athletic event scheduled in violation of this prohibition would be deemed void, including the outcomes or forfeitures of any competitions that occur on those dates. The bill is currently residing in the House Committee on Education and Public Works and will take effect upon approval by the Governor.
