SB4014 amends the School Code to adjust funding and reimbursement processes for special education services and the Illinois Teaching Excellence.

SB4014 amends the School Code to modify the recomputation and adjustment of school district claims for general State aid or evidence-based funding, ending these provisions with Fiscal Year 2026. It also adjusts the reimbursement process for special education services, ensuring that eligible students with disabilities receive necessary services and that districts are reimbursed for these costs. Additionally, the bill modifies the Illinois Teaching Excellence Program, providing monetary assistance and incentives for qualified educators, including those in hard-to-staff schools.
