Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

(105 ILCS 5/14C-7) (from Ch. 122, par. 14C-7)

Sec. 14C-7. Participation in extracurricular activities of public schools.

Instruction in courses of subjects included in a program of transitional
bilingual education which are not mandatory may be given in a language
other than English. In those courses or subjects in which verbalization is
not essential to an understanding of the subject matter, including but not
necessarily limited to art, music and physical education, English learners shall participate fully with their
English-speaking contemporaries in the regular public school classes
provided for said subjects. Each school district shall ensure to children
enrolled in a program in transitional bilingual education practical and
meaningful opportunity to participate fully in the extracurricular
activities of the regular public schools in the district.
