Synopsis As Introduced Amends the School Code. Provides that at the time of annual enrollment or at any time during the school year, a school district or a recognized non-public school serving any of grades kindergarten through 12 shall provide, either on its standard enrollment form or on a separate form, the opportunity for the individual enrolling the student to voluntarily state whether the student has a parent or guardian who is a member of a branch of the armed forces of the United States and who is either deployed to active duty or expects to be deployed to active duty during the school year.

Effective immediately.
House Floor Amendment No. 2 Provides that the provisions do not apply to sectarian (instead of secular) non-public schools.
