SB 1550

Abstract

Amends the School Code. Makes changes concerning reporting attacks on school personnel, including adding aggravated battery, assault, aggravated assault, criminal sexual assault, and criminal homicide as incidents that must be reported; reporting firearms in schools; and reporting drug-related incidents in schools, including adding drug paraphernalia to the definition of "drug". Sets forth provisions requiring the principal of any public or private elementary or secondary school (instead of just the principal of a Chicago public school) to report incidents of intimidation. Provides that a local law enforcement authority shall, by March 1 of each year, report certain data from the previous year to the Department of State Police's Illinois Uniform Crime Reporting Program. Removes provisions requiring the State Board of Education to compile certain information by school district and make it available to the public.
