| IL | Adopted 11/2009 | P-12 | Partially from "Notice of Adopted Amendments" in Illinois Register (changes from this rulemaking but not listed below are technical in nature or echo recent changes in legislation):
Section 1.20: Revised to distinguish among the appropriate levels of sign-off on the corrective plan a district must submit depending on whether a school or the district has been placed on probation. Adds a provision allowing a district's or school's status to be changed to "nonrecognized" if, at any time that a corrective action plan is in effect, the state superintendent determines that the agreed-upon actions are not being implemented in accordance with the plan or the underlying areas of noncompliance are not being remedied.
Section 1.30: Updated to refer to state assessment accommodations now allowed for limited English proficient students, and now specifies when time extensions will be made available to those students (in response to P.A. 94-642, which authorized the state board to allow additional time "by rule"). Revises labels used to describe scores on the Illinois Alternate Assessment, and updates rule on review and verification of assessment information.
Section 1.100: Adds details so that staff of districts and other eligible applicants will have more specific guidance as to what is expected as part of the process for receiving waivers and modifications of requirements in the school code or administrative rules.
Section 1.240: Expanded to include a reference to gender identity among the prohibited bases for discrimination because it may otherwise not be clear that gender identity is encompassed in the definition of "sexual orientation".
Section 1.420: Adds provision specifying that each district's plan for recording student progress and/or awarding credit must include credit for courses completed by correspondence, online or from other external sources. Specifies that a district may count four clock-hours as a day of instruction only due to a condition beyond the district's control; specifies other requirements that must be met for the state superintendent to approve a district's request to use "multiple sessions" to fulfill school day requirements. Specifies that students in attendance for at least 150 but fewer than 240 minutes of school work may be counted for a half-day of attendance; students in attendance for fewer than 150 minutes of school work are not to be counted for purposes of calculating average daily attendance. Emphasizes the meaning of the portion of the rule on library media programs that distinguishes between the services that may be performed only by certified library information specialists and the other tasks that may be inherent in districts' operation of their programs.
Section 1.465 (on awarding of credit for foreign language study in an ethnic school program) and 1.480 (on correctional institution educational programs): Generally updated, including the insertion of current statutory citations.
Section 1.510: Main revision conveys state board's interpretation that districts may not pick and choose among students in the same situation once they elect to transport some students.
Section 1.737: Updated to complement new requirements for endorsements in safety and driver education that will take effect in 2012.
