| IL | Adopted 09/2007 | P-12 | Amends policies regarding the assessment of special education students at nonpublic, public out-of-state, public residential or private special education facilities. Transfers authority for the oversight of such assessment from the state board of education to the state superintendent. Specifies that an application for initial approval of educational and/or residential programs at such facilities must include the data that will be collected on the outcomes achieved by those students, which must reflect the students' learning goals as described in their respective IEPs. Also requires applications for programs serving students for whom behavioral interventions may be appropriate, to include a description of the provider's formalized approach to the use of these interventions.
Requires each provider to ensure that each student receives special education and related services in accordance with his or her IEP, provided that the use of behavioral intervention strategies that would jeopardize the safety or security of students or would rely upon pain as an intentional method of control cannot be permitted.
Requires each class offered in such a program to have a maximum enrollment of five students, except that enrollment may be increased by a maximum of two students in response to unique circumstances that occur during the school year so long as the educational needs of all students in the class can be adequately and appropriately met. Allows the enrollment in a class to be increased by a maximum of five students when a full-time paraprofessional is provided.
Establishes requirements for the administration of state assessments at such special education facilities, including required testing conditions, required personnel assignments and qualifications and required procedures. Requires that any breach of test security or other testing irregularity be reported to the state superintendent of education or designee in accordance with instructions applicable to particular types of problems, using one of the methods identified by
the state superintendent. Requires responsible staff at the affected facility to then follow the instructions provided by the state superintendent or the relevant test
contractor regarding the next steps to be taken in investigating the source of the problem, its implications and its potential resolution.
Directs each provider to prepare and keep on file an annual plan for inservice training in areas where improvement is desirable. Directs the provider to identify these areas based on an analysis of each program's implementation in relation to the approved application and based on data illustrating the achievement of the
students served in relation to the goals and objectives stated in their IEPs and on the state assessments in which they participate. Requires each provider to provide specific training to all staff on the use of isolated time out and behavioral intervention strategies, as appropriate to the student population.
Specifies that staff criminal background checks include the results of fingerprint-based criminal history records checks performed pursuant to the Uniform Conviction Information Act [20 ILCS 2635] or, for a facility located in another state, pursuant to that state's uniform conviction information act, and pursuant to the Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act of 2006 (P.L. 109-240), as well as the results of checks of the statewide sex offender database maintained in accordance with Section 115 of the Sex Offender Community Notification Law [730 ILCS 152/115] or, for a facility located in another state, checks of that state's sex offender
database.
