(105 ILCS 5/34-18.4) (from Ch. 122, par. 34-18.4)
Sec. 34-18.4.
Before and after school programs.
The Board of Education
may develop and maintain
before school and after school programs for students in kindergarten through
the 6th grade. Such programs may include time for homework, physical
exercise, afternoon nutritional snacks and educational offerings which are
in addition to those offered during the regular school day. The chief administrator
in each district shall be a certified teacher or a person who meets the
requirements for supervising a day care center under the Child Care Act
of 1969. Individual programs shall be coordinated by certified teachers
or by persons who meet the requirements for supervising a day care center
under the Child Care Act of 1969. Additional employees who are not so qualified
may also be employed for such programs.
The schedule of these programs may follow the work calendar of the local
community rather than the regular school calendar. Parents or guardians
of the participating
students shall be responsible for providing transportation for the students
to and from the programs. The school board may charge parents of participating
students a fee, not to exceed the actual cost of such before and after school
programs.
