Illinois HB4239 allows school boards to permit seventh and eighth-grade students to enroll in high school courses.
HB4239 amends the Illinois School Code to authorize school boards to adopt policies allowing seventh and eighth-grade students to enroll in required high school courses. These students must participate in the course at their current school, taught by a licensed teacher endorsed for the grade level and content area. Successful completion of these courses grants high school credit and satisfies the requirements for the course. The student's grade in these courses will be included in their grade point average.
