Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Chicago School District Article of the School Code. Adds to the definition of "school action". Provides that, beginning on July 1, 2019, the facility performance standards published by the district must include the performance standards of safety measures in the district. Requires the data, information, and analysis published on the district's Internet website regarding the 10-year educational facility master plan to include a brief description of specific plans for special education programs, early childhood education programs, career and technical education programs, and any other programs that are space sensitive to avoid space irregularities, a description of a communications and community involvement plan for each community in the City of Chicago, historical and projected enrollment of each school, and other items. Requires the chief executive officer to publish a procedure for conducting an annual capital improvement hearing that shall discuss the district's annual capital budget. Adds to the requirements of the capital improvement plan published annually by the chief executive officer. Provides that beginning on June 1, 2019, and annually thereafter, the district shall conduct a regional capital budget hearing that describes planned projects for the year and reviews the 5-year capital budget and the educational facility master plan. Adds to the requirements of a school transition plan. Makes other changes.

House Floor Amendment No. 1
Makes a change to the definition of "school action". Provides that the district must complete at least one of the enumerated actions for all under-enrolled schools (rather than must complete all of the actions). Exempts a charter school from ceasing any potential plans for school expansion that may negatively impact enrollment at an under-enrolled school. Makes conforming changes.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 1
Deletes reference to:
105 ILCS 5/34-200
105 ILCS 5/34-205
105 ILCS 5/34-220
105 ILCS 5/34-227 new
105 ILCS 5/34-230

Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the provisions of the engrossed bill with the following changes. Removes language providing that the facility performance standards must include the performance standards of safety measures in the district beginning on July 1, 2019. Changes requirements for the information that shall be included in educational facility master plans, capital improvement plans, and school transition plans. Removes language requiring the district to conduct a regional capital budget hearing beginning on June 1, 2019 and annually thereafter. In provisions concerning the school transition plan, removes language providing that a local school council affected by a school action shall conduct an annual evaluation on the school transition plan at the council's annual organizational meeting. Makes other changes.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 2
With regard to the educational facility master plan, provides that on or before December 1, 2018, the Board shall adopt a policy to address under-enrolled schools that must contain a list of potential interventions to address schools with declining enrollment (rather than requiring the district to complete at least one delineated task for all under-enrolled schools). Requires one of the potential interventions to be a redraft (rather than a redo) of attendance boundaries to maximize enrollment of additional students. Adds an immediate effective date.
