Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

Sec. 10-14.

Secretary of board of education.

The secretary of the board of education shall be elected by the board
of education and may be a member thereof, who shall serve for 2 years,
except that the board by resolution may establish a policy for the term
of office to be one year. The secretary, if not a member of the board,
may receive such compensation as shall be fixed by the board of education
prior to the election of the secretary.  If the secretary is a member of
the board, he or she may receive such compensation not to exceed $500 per
year as shall be fixed by the board and may vote on all questions coming before the board.

He shall perform the duties usually pertaining to his office, or to
the clerk of a board of directors, and such as are imposed on him by
law, or by action of the board of education. If he is absent from any
meeting or refuses to perform his duties, a secretary pro tempore who
may but need not be a member of the board shall be appointed.
