STAND. COM. REP. NO. 706

 

Honolulu, Hawaii

                  

 

RE:    S.B. No. 360

       S.D. 1

 

 

 

Honorable Colleen Hanabusa

President of the Senate

Twenty-Fifth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2009

State of Hawaii

 

Madam:

 

     Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred S.B. No. 360 entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this measure is to allow home schooled children to participate in extracurricular activities at the public school that they would otherwise be required to attend.

 

     Your Committee received one written comment on this measure.  Copies of written comments submitted are available for review on the Legislature's website.

 

     Your Committee finds that this measure would provide home schooling families the option of allowing their children to participate in sports and other activities offered to students enrolled in public schools.  Your Committee believes that this opportunity could be of benefit to both participating home schooled children and the public school programs, as well.

 

     Your Committee amended this bill by:

 

     (1)  Changing the effective date to January 1, 2090 to facilitate further discussion on the measure; and

 

     (2)  Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Ways and Means that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 360, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 360, S.D. 1.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Ways and Means,
