House Sponsors: SILVA. Short description: SCHCD-RESIDENCY-LEGAL CUSTODY Synopsis of Bill as introduced: Amends the School Code. Replaces provisions that determine a pupil's residency based on the residence of the person with whom the pupil resides for reasons other than to have access to the educational programs of a school district with provisions that determine the pupil's residency based on the residence of the person with whom the pupil resides unless the pupil's custody is granted to or exercised by that person solely for the purpose of the pupil's transfer from one school district to another in order to access the educational programs of the latter district. In the provisions including as a form of legal custody the custody exercised by an adult who assumes and exercises legal responsibility for the pupil and provides the pupil with a regular night-time place of abode, provides that the term "adult" includes a family member and replaces "legal responsibility" with "physical custody and care". Effective immediately.
