Illinois HB0011 amends school discipline policies to limit suspensions and expulsions, require support services for suspended students, and mandate.
Illinois HB0011 amends the School Code to limit the use of out-of-school suspensions and expulsions, requiring that they only be used if other behavioral and disciplinary interventions have been exhausted. It mandates that students suspended for more than three days receive support services and that school districts create policies for re-engaging students returning from suspension, expulsion, or alternative schools. The bill also requires ongoing professional development for school personnel on topics such as trauma-responsive learning environments and culturally responsive discipline.
