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 5/22-20

(105 ILCS 5/22-20) (from Ch. 122, par. 22-20)

Sec. 22-20.

All courts and law enforcement agencies of the State of
Illinois and its political subdivisions shall report to the principal of
any public school in this State whenever a child enrolled therein is
detained for proceedings under the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, as heretofore
and hereafter amended, or for any criminal offense, including illegal gang activity, or any violation of a
municipal or county ordinance.  The report shall include the basis for
detaining the child, circumstances surrounding the events which led to the
child's detention, and status of proceedings.  The report shall be updated as
appropriate to notify the principal of developments and the disposition of the
matter.

The information derived thereby shall be kept separate from and shall
not become a part of the official school record of such child and shall not
be a public record. Such information shall be used solely by the appropriate school official or officials whom the school has determined to have a legitimate educational or safety interest to aid in the proper rehabilitation
of the child and to protect the safety of students and employees in the
school.
