Illinois SB2060 amends school disciplinary procedures to limit suspensions and expulsions.

Illinois SB2060 amends the School Code to restrict the use of suspensions and expulsions in schools. It mandates that these measures should only be used when a student's presence poses a threat to the school's operation, the health or safety of students or staff, or causes a disruption to other students' learning. The bill also requires schools to consider non-exclusionary disciplinary interventions before resorting to suspensions or expulsions. It prohibits out-of-school suspensions of more than three days unless the student's conduct meets the specified criteria.
