| IL | Adopted 09/2006 | P-12 | New section (p 243 of 405 http://www.cyberdriveillinois.com/departments/index/register/register_volume30_issue41.pdf) institutes a requirement that districts electronically report information used in determining whether teachers can be considered "highly qualified"
for their assignments in the core academic subject areas.
New section 1.242 (p 244 of 405 http://www.cyberdriveillinois.com/departments/index/register/register_volume30_issue41.pdf) conveys the due process requirements that are applicable when districts elect to deny enrollment to high school students for failure to maintain academic or attendance standards, as permitted by Public Act 93-803.
Sections 1.420 and 1.430 (pp 244-254 of 405 http://www.cyberdriveillinois.com/departments/index/register/register_volume30_issue41.pdf) have been updated to acknowledge that, under Public Act 94-198, physical education is not required daily in cases of block scheduling.
Language has been inserted into Section 1.720 (pp 254-258 of 405 http://www.cyberdriveillinois.com/departments/index/register/register_volume30_issue41.pdf) to clarify the long-standing policy that the "major field of teaching assignment" is the one in which a (middle-grades) teacher spends
the most time and is thus the field in which the teacher is generally required to have 18 semester hours of credit.

| KS | Signed into law 05/2006 | P-12 | Defines 'extraordinary declining enrollment' as a district enrollment which has declined during the preceding three school years at a rate of at least 5% per year or by at least 50 students per year, whichever is greater. Bars the board of any district with extraordinary declining enrollment from authorizing the issuance of any bonds for the construction of a new building without having first advised and consulted with the joint committee on state building construction. Following a hearing between the local board and the committee, directs the committee to make a recommendation on the advisability of the proposed issuance of bonds. Requires a copy of the committee's recommendation to be provided to the district and to the state board of education within 15 days of the date of the hearing.
Provides that if the joint committee recommends against the issuance of any bonds for the construction of a new building and if the district proceeds to issue bonds for such construction, the district is not entitled to state aid for such bonds.
