No student who is otherwise eligible to attend the schools
of this district shall be denied an educational program solely
because of pregnancy, childbirth, pregnancy-related disabilities,
or actual or potential parenthood; nor shall a pregnant student
under the age of seventeen (17) be excused from the requirements

The Board reserves the right to require as a prerequisite for
participation in the co-curricular program of the schools that
a student present a physician's statement that such activity will
not be injurious to the student's health.
A pregnant student whose mental or physical condition prevents
her from attending regular classes, when such condition is certified
by a physician, may be assigned to an alternate educational program
or to homebound instruction.
