THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN ENACT:
Sec. 1318. (1) The board of a school district or board of
directors of a public school academy shall ensure that its policies
concerning a pupil's eligibility for participation in
interscholastic athletics include use of a performance-enhancing
substance by the pupil as a violation that will affect a pupil's
eligibility, as determined by the board or board of directors. [The
governing body of a nonpublic school is encouraged to adopt an eligibility policy that meets the requirements of this section.]
(2) For the purposes of this section, the department of
community health shall develop, periodically update, and make
available to school districts, public school academies, and
nonpublic schools a list of performance-enhancing substances. The
department of community health shall base the list on the list of
banned drugs contained in bylaw 31.2.3.1 of the bylaws of the
national collegiate athletic association.
