Illinois Compiled Statutes
Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau 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.

Sec. 30-14.2. Deceased, Disabled, and MIA/POW Veterans' Dependents scholarship.
(a) Any spouse, natural child, legally adopted child under the age of 18 at the time of adoption, minor child younger than 18 who is under a court-ordered guardianship for at least 2 continuous years prior to application, or
step-child under the age of 18 at the time of marriage of an eligible veteran or serviceperson who possesses all necessary
entrance requirements shall, upon application and proper proof, be awarded
a MIA/POW Scholarship consisting of the equivalent of 4 calendar years of
full-time enrollment including summer terms, to the state supported
Illinois institution of higher learning of his choice, subject to the
restrictions listed below.
"Eligible veteran or serviceperson" means any veteran or serviceperson, including an Illinois National Guard member who is on active duty or is active on a training assignment,
who has been declared by the U.S. Department of Defense or the
U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to be a prisoner of war or missing
in action, or has died as the result of a service-connected disability or has become a person with a permanent disability from service-connected causes with 100% disability and
who (i) at the time of entering service was an Illinois resident, or (ii) was an
Illinois resident within 6 months after entering such service, or (iii) is a resident of Illinois at the time of application for the Scholarship and, at some point after entering such service, was a resident of Illinois for at least 15 consecutive years.
Full-time enrollment means 12 or more semester hours of courses per semester,
or 12 or more quarter hours of courses per quarter, or the equivalent thereof
per term. Scholarships utilized by dependents enrolled in less than full-time
study shall be computed in the proportion which the number of hours so carried
bears to full-time enrollment.
Scholarships awarded under this Section may be used by a spouse or child
without regard to his or her age. The holder of a Scholarship
awarded under this Section shall be subject to all examinations and academic
standards, including the maintenance of minimum grade levels, that are
applicable generally to other enrolled students at the Illinois institution of
higher learning where the Scholarship is being used.
If the surviving spouse
remarries or if there is a divorce between the veteran or serviceperson and
his or her spouse while the dependent is pursuing his or her course of
study, Scholarship benefits will be terminated at the end of the term for
which he or she is presently enrolled. Such dependents shall also be
entitled, upon proper proof and application, to enroll in any extension
course offered by a State supported Illinois institution of higher learning
without payment of tuition and approved fees.
The holder of a MIA/POW Scholarship authorized under this Section shall
not be required to pay any tuition or mandatory fees while attending a State-controlled university or public community college in this State for a period equivalent to 4 years of enrollment, including summer terms.
Any dependent who has been or shall be awarded a MIA/POW Scholarship shall
be reimbursed by the appropriate institution of higher learning for any
fees which he or she has paid and for which exemption is granted under this
Section if application for reimbursement is made within 2 months following
the end of the school term for which the fees were paid.
(b) In lieu of the benefit provided in subsection (a), any spouse,
natural child, legally adopted child, or step-child of an eligible veteran
or serviceperson, which spouse or child has a physical, mental or
developmental disability, shall be entitled to receive, upon application and
proper proof, a benefit to be used for the purpose of defraying the cost of
the attendance or treatment of such spouse or child at one or more
appropriate therapeutic, rehabilitative or educational facilities. The
application and proof may be made by the parent or legal guardian of the
spouse or child on his or her behalf.
The total benefit provided to any beneficiary under this subsection shall
not exceed the cost equivalent of 4 calendar years of full-time enrollment,
including summer terms, at the University of Illinois. Whenever
practicable in the opinion of the Department of Veterans' Affairs, payment
of benefits under this subsection shall be made directly to the facility,
the cost of attendance or treatment at which is being defrayed, as such
costs accrue.
(c) The benefits of this Section shall be administered by and paid for out
of funds made available to the Illinois Department of Veterans' Affairs.
The amounts that become due to any state supported Illinois institution of
higher learning shall be payable by the Comptroller to such institution on
vouchers approved by the Illinois Department of Veterans' Affairs. The
amounts that become due under subsection (b) of this Section shall be
payable by warrant upon vouchers issued by the Illinois Department of
Veterans' Affairs and approved by the Comptroller. The Illinois Department
of Veterans' Affairs shall determine the eligibility of the persons
who make application for the benefits provided for in this Section.

Christa McAuliffe Fellowship Program.
(a) The General Assembly finds that the Christa McAuliffe federal fellowship
is an award expressly and exclusively for the benefit of one or more elementary
or secondary teachers, provides funding for a sabbatical for the recipient of
the fellowship, has no express relationship to post-secondary educational
benefits under State and federal grant and loan programs administered by the
Illinois Student Assistance Commission (hereinafter in this Section sometimes
referred to as the "Commission"), and therefore is a program that from and
after the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1995 should be administered
in this State by the State Board of Education.
(b) There is hereby transferred to the State Board of Education from the
Illinois Student Assistance Commission all authority and responsibility
exercised by the Commission before the effective date of this amendatory Act of
1995 with respect to the administration within this State of the Christa
McAuliffe federal fellowship program. From and after the effective date of
this amendatory Act, the State Board of Education shall administer on behalf of
the State of Illinois and in accordance with all applicable rules and
regulations the conduct and operation of the Christa McAuliffe federal
fellowship program within this State.
(c) The Illinois Student Assistance Commission shall transfer to the State
Board of Education, as successor to the Commission for all purposes of
administering the Christa McAuliffe federal fellowship program, all books,
accounts, records, papers, documents, contracts, agreements, and pending
business in the possession or under the control of the Commission and relating
to its administration of the Christa McAuliffe fellowship program in this
State.
All pending applications made before the effective date of this amendatory Act
of 1995 for scholarship awards under the Christa McAuliffe fellowship program
and all scholarships awarded under that program before the effective date of
this amendatory Act of 1995 shall be unaffected by the transfer to the State
Board of Education of all responsibilities and authority formerly exercised by
the Commission with respect to that program. The Commission shall furnish to
the State Board of Education such other information as the State Board of
Education may request to assist it in administering this Section.

neither a citizen nor a resident of the United States, in any calendar or
fiscal year. If the foreign government or individual donates more than one
gift in any calendar or fiscal year, and the total value of those gifts
exceeds $250,000, such institution shall report all the gifts received.
(d) Such information shall be forwarded to the Attorney
General no later than 30 days after the final day of each calendar or fiscal
year of such institution, whichever type of year is used by the institution
in accounting for the gifts received for the purposes of this Section. The
information shall include:
(1) the name of the foreign government in the case of | | a gift by a government, or the name of the foreign country of which an individual donor is a citizen, in the case of a gift by an individual;

SPECIAL CHARTER DISTRICTS

105 ILCS 5/32-1
(105 ILCS 5/32-1) (from Ch. 122, par. 32-1)
Sec. 32-1. May vote to organize under general law.
(a) Any special charter district may, by vote of its electors, cease to
control its school under the Act under which it was organized, and become part
of the school township or townships in which it is situated. Upon petition of
50 voters of the district, presented to the board having the control and
management of the schools, the board shall order submitted to the voters at an
election to be held in the district, in accordance with the general election
law, the question of "organizing under the general school law".
The secretary of the board shall make certification to the proper election
authority in accordance with the general election law. If, however, a
majority of the votes cast at any such election in any school district subject
to Sections 32-3 through 32-4.11 is against organizing the district under
the general school law, the question may not again be submitted in the district
for 22 months thereafter, and then only upon petition signed by at least 2% of
the voters of the school district. Notice shall be given in accordance with
the general election law, which notice shall be in the following form:
NOTICE OF REFERENDUM
Notice is hereby given that on (insert date), a referendum will be held at.... for the purpose of deciding the
question of organizing under the general school law. The polls will be opened
at .... o'clock ..m and closed at .... o'clock ..m.
Signed .....
If a majority of the votes cast on the proposition is in favor of organizing
under the general school law, then the board having the control and management
of schools in the district, shall declare the proposition carried.
When such a proposition is declared to have so carried, the board of
education shall continue to exercise its powers and duties under the general
school law. Each member of the board of education selected under the provisions
of the special charter shall continue in office until his term has expired.
Before the term of each of these members expires, the board shall give notice
of an election to be held on the date of the next regular school election, in
accordance with the general election law to fill the vacancy which is created.
Nomination papers filed under this Section are not valid unless the candidate
named therein files with the county clerk or the county board of election commissioners, as the case may be, of the county in which the principal office of the school district is located a receipt
from the county clerk showing that the candidate has filed a statement of
economic interests as required by the Illinois Governmental Ethics Act.
Such receipt shall be so filed either previously during the calendar year
in which his nomination papers were filed or within the period for the filing
of nomination papers in accordance with the general election law.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any special charter district whose board
is appointed by the mayor or other corporate authority of that municipality
may, by resolution adopted by the corporate authorities of that municipality
cease to control its school under the Act under which it was organized,
become a part of the school township or townships in which it is situated
and become organized under the general school law. If such a resolution
is adopted, the board of education shall continue to exercise its powers
and duties under the general school law. Each member of the board of education
selected under the provisions of the special charter shall continue in office
until his term has expired. Before the term of each of these members expires,
the board shall give notice of an election to be held on the date of the
next regular school election, in accordance with the general election law
to fill the vacancy which is created.

(105 ILCS 5/32-1.1) (from Ch. 122, par. 32-1.1)
Sec. 32-1.1.
Election and powers of board - No provision in special act.
In all special charter districts maintaining schools under any general school
laws, where there is no provision in the special Acts creating such districts
for the election of boards of education as otherwise provided, there shall
be elected, in lieu of the school directors as now provided, a board of
education, to consist of 7 members to be elected at the time and in the
manner as provided by the general election law for the
election and qualification of boards of education in other cases. In any
district having a population of more than 100,000 but less than
2,000,000
such board may be increased in size to 11 members upon adoption by a majority
of electors residing in the district and voting on the question in a referendum
as provided in this Section. Such question shall be submitted to the electors
at an election upon a resolution adopted by the Board. Members
shall be elected biennially in the school district, whose term of office
shall be 4 years,
and there shall also be elected in each odd-numbered year
a president of the board. Following the first such election, those members
elected, other than the president, shall, by lot, determine 3 to serve 2
years and 3 to serve 4 years; thereafter, all terms shall be 4 years. In
other cases, however, if 4 members, other than the president, are elected
in 1983, then those elected shall, by lot, determine one to serve for 2
years and 3 to serve 4 years; thereafter all terms shall be 4 years. In
neither case shall such determinations affect the biennial selection of
the president. At the first regular school election after
the adoption by the district electors of a question as provided in this
Section increasing the size of the board in those districts entitled to
exercise an option for and elect an 11 member board, 4 additional members
shall be elected and shall determine by lot 2 to serve for 2
years and 2 for 4 years.
Their successors shall serve for a 4 year term. In case of
an 11 member board already in existence, if 7 members, other than the
president,
are elected in 1983 then those members elected shall, by lot determine one
to serve 2 years and 6 to serve 4 years. Terms thereafter shall be 4 years.
The board of education shall have all the powers and duties of trustees
of schools in school townships and the powers and duties of boards of education
in districts having a population of not fewer than 1,000 and not more than
500,000 as provided by this Act.
The day upon which the election provided for in this section is to be held
is subject to the provisions of the general election law.
