Illinois HB4535 allows school districts to use e-learning days when schools are polling places, ensuring students receive instruction electronically.

HB4535 amends the Illinois School Code to allow school boards to adopt and verify e-learning programs for district-wide use. These programs permit student instruction to be received electronically on days when schools are used as polling places, instead of counting these days as emergency days. The bill requires the program to ensure at least five hours of instruction, provide access to technology for all students, and meet the needs of special education and English learners.
