 1        AN ACT regarding schools.

 2        Be it enacted by the People of  the  State  of  Illinois,
 3    represented in the General Assembly:

 4        Section  5.   The  School  Code  is  amended  by changing
 5    Section 10-20.12a as follows:

 6        (105 ILCS 5/10-20.12a) (from Ch. 122, par. 10-20.12a)
 7        Sec. 10-20.12a.   Tuition  for  non-resident  pupils.  To
 8    charge  non-resident  pupils  who  attend  the schools of the
 9    district tuition in an amount not exceeding 110% of  the  per
10    capita  cost  of  maintaining the schools of the district for
11    the preceding school year.
12        Such per capita cost shall be computed  by  dividing  the
13    total  cost  of conducting and maintaining the schools of the
14    district by the average daily attendance,  including  tuition
15    pupils.  Depreciation  on  the buildings and equipment of the
16    schools  of  the  district,  and   the   amount   of   annual
17    depreciation   on  such  buildings  and  equipment  shall  be
18    dependent upon the useful life of such property.
19        The tuition charged shall in no case exceed 110%  of  the
20    per  capita cost of conducting and maintaining the schools of
21    the district attended, as determined with  reference  to  the
22    most  recent  audit  prepared  under  Section  3-7  which  is
23    available  at  the  commencement  of the current school year.
24    Non-resident pupils attending the schools of the district for
25    less  than  the  school  term  shall   have   their   tuition
26    apportioned;,  however, pupils who become non-resident during
27    a school term shall not be charged tuition for the  remainder
28    of  the school term in which they became non-resident pupils,
29    unless they were residents of the school district  for  fewer
30    than 60 days before the start of the school term.
31        Unless  otherwise  agreed  to by the parties involved and
 
                            -2-      LRB093 07960 NHT 08154 b
 1    where the educational services  are  not  otherwise  provided
 2    for,  educational  services for an Illinois student under the
 3    age of 21  in  a  residential  program  designed  to  correct
 4    alcohol  or  other drug dependencies shall be provided by the
 5    district in which the facility is  located  and  financed  as
 6    follows.   The  cost of educational services shall be paid by
 7    the district in which the student resides in an amount  equal
 8    to  the cost of providing educational services in a treatment
 9    facility.  Payments shall be made  by  the  district  of  the
10    student's residence and shall be made to the district wherein
11    the  facility  is  located no less than once per month unless
12    otherwise agreed to by the parties.
