What it does
The legislature's own summary of the bill, or its official long title.
Amends the School Boards Article of the School Code. Provides that a school district shall waive tuition costs for a non-resident pupil who was previously a resident of the district if the pupil submits a letter stating that the pupil no longer resides in the district because the pupil has made allegations of domestic violence, abuse, or sexual abuse against the pupil's parent or guardian and the Department of Children and Family Services has removed the pupil from the parent's or guardian's home.
