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 5/14-1.11) (from Ch. 122, par. 14-1.11)
Sec. 14-1.11. Resident district; parent; legal guardian. The resident
district is the school district in which the parent or guardian, or both
parent and guardian, of the
student reside when:
(1) the parent has legal guardianship of the student |
| and resides within Illinois; or
|
|
(2) an individual guardian has been appointed by the
|
| courts and resides within Illinois; or
|
|
(3) an Illinois public agency has legal guardianship
|
| and the student resides either in the home of the parent or within the same district as the parent; or
|
|
(4) an Illinois court orders a residential placement
|
| but the parents retain any legal rights or guardianship and have not been subject to a termination of parental rights order.
|
|
In cases of divorced or separated parents, when only one parent has legal
guardianship or custody, the district in which the parent having legal
guardianship or custody resides
is the resident district. When both parents retain legal guardianship or
custody, the resident district is the district in which either parent who
provides the student's primary regular fixed night-time abode resides;
provided, that the election of resident district may be made only one time per
school year.
When the parent has legal guardianship and lives outside of the State of
Illinois, or when the individual legal guardian other than the natural
parent lives outside the State of Illinois, the parent, legal guardian, or
other placing agent is responsible for making arrangements to pay the
Illinois school district serving the child for the educational services
provided. Those service costs shall be determined in accordance with Section
14-7.01.
