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.

(Text of Section before amendment by P.A. 103-624)
Sec. 8.6.
Reports to a child's school.
Within 10 days after completing an
investigation of alleged physical or sexual abuse under this Act, if the report
is indicated, the Child Protective Service Unit shall send a copy of its final
finding report to the school that the child who is the indicated victim of the
report attends. If the final finding report is sent during the summer when the
school is not in session, the report shall be sent to the last school that the
child attended. The final finding report shall be sent as "confidential", and
the school shall be responsible for ensuring that the report remains
confidential in accordance with the Illinois School Student Records Act. If an
indicated finding is overturned in an appeal or hearing, or if the
Department has made a determination that the child is no longer at risk of
physical or sexual harm, the Department shall request that the final finding
report be purged from the student's record, and the school shall purge the
final finding report from the student's record and return the report to the
Department. If an indicated report is expunged from the central register, and
that report has been sent to a child's school, the Department shall request
that the final finding report be purged from the student's record, and the
school shall purge the final finding report from the student's record and
return the report to the Department.
