SCHOOL BOARD RESOLUTION

By action of the 1976 Legislature, each School District Board of Directors may delegate control, supervision, and regulation of any extracurricular activity to the WIAA and compensate such entity for services provided.

The local SCHOOL BOARD PRESIDENT and SECRETARY must sign this enrollment form to indicate that the School Board has approved the District’s or School’s membership in the Association and as members, these schools will follow the WIAA Rules and Regulations.

WHEREAS Chapter 32, Laws of 1975-76, 2nd Ex. Sess. authorizes school district boards of directors to delegate control, supervision and regulation of any of the aforesaid activities to any voluntary, nonprofit entity and to compensate any such entity for services provided subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and approval by the State Board Of Education.

WHEREAS the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association is a voluntary, nonprofit entity which has satisfied the conditions, expressly set forth in Chapter 32, Laws of 1975-76, 2nd Ex. Sess. and has further been approved by the State Board of Education in action taken on August 17, 1977.

WHEREAS the board of directors of the following School District or School being otherwise fully informed of the rules and regulations of the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association as approved by the State Board of Education and recognizing that said rules and regulations provide for private sponsorship of post-season tournaments for extracurricular activities by WIAA, consent to abide by such rules and regulations.

NOW THEREFORE, the board of directors of the following School District or School hereby delegates to the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association the authority to control, supervise and regulate interschool activities consistent with the rules and regulations of WIAA. The Board of Directors retains the right to establish eligibility standards that meet or exceed the rules and regulations of WIAA.

Beginning July 1, 1988, interscholastic sports officials were covered by Washington State Labor and Industries via a common rate and payment system that eliminated game-by-game calculations and record keeping by school and/or district business offices.  WIAA will guarantee payment of L&I premiums for WOA registered officials for all interscholastic activities under WIAA’s jurisdiction and will assess WIAA member schools based on tiered billing rates at the same time service fees are billed.  Officials L&I coverage is only in effect for activities in which registered WOA Officials officiate, and which are authorized and offered by School Board approval and listed on the school’s participation survey.

By signing below the School Board President and School Board Secretary affirm that the information above is accurate for the school district or private school listed.
