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 5/10-20.30

(105 ILCS 5/10-20.30)

Sec. 10-20.30.

No pass-no play policy.

Beginning with the 1998-99 school
year, the school board of each school
district that maintains any of grades 9 through 12 shall establish, implement,
and enforce a uniform and consistent policy under which a student in any of
those grades who fails to maintain a specified minimum grade point average or a
specified minimum grade in each course in which the student is enrolled or both
is suspended from further participation in any school-sponsored or
school-supported athletic or extracurricular activities for a specified period
or until a specified minimum grade point average or minimum grade or both are
earned by the student.  Each school board shall adopt a policy as required by
this Section not later than one year after the effective date of this
amendatory Act of 1997 and shall concurrently file a copy of that policy with
the State Board of Education.  After the policy has been in effect for one
year, the school board shall file a report with the
State Board of Education setting forth the number and length of suspensions
imposed under the policy during the period covered by the report.
If the school board already has a policy that is consistent with the
requirements of this Section in effect on the effective date of this amendatory
Act of 1997,
it shall file a copy of that policy with the State Board of Education within 90
 days after the effective date of this amendatory Act and shall file the annual
report required under this Section 12 months thereafter.
