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.

Sec. 5-1a.

High school districts.

Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Article or the School Code, the school board of any high school
district that is located in a Class II county school unit and that on or
after the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1991 is subject to the
jurisdiction and authority of a township treasurer and trustees of schools of
a township in which all or any part of that school district is located may
not withdraw from the jurisdiction and authority of that township treasurer
and those trustees of schools and transfer or otherwise submit to the
jurisdiction and authority of a township treasurer or trustees of school
of another township, unless the school board of each underlying elementary
school district whose territory includes all or any part of the territory
included within that high school district, by resolution, consents to the
proposed withdrawal by the school board of that high school district from
the jurisdiction and authority of the township treasurer and trustees of
schools of the township to which that high school district is subject and
the transfer or other submission by the school board of that high school
district to the jurisdiction and authority of a township treasurer or
trustees of schools of another township.

A high school district that is subject to the jurisdiction and authority
of the township treasurer and trustees of schools of a township in which
those offices are abolished as provided in subsection (c) of Section 5-1
shall thereupon be required to appoint its own school treasurer as provided
in paragraph (4) of subsection (c) of Section 5-1 and subsection (c) of
Section 8-1, and shall be subject to and governed by the other changes made
to the School Code by this amendatory Act of 1991, insofar as the same are
applicable to a high school district.
