Short description: 
SCH CD-SCIENCE LAB REQUIRED                                                

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the School Code.  For grades 6 though 8, requires a public      
   school  to  include  in  its  curriculum  a  science  lab  that   uses      
   microscopes, scales, and scientific weights.                                
          FISCAL NOTE (State Board of Education)                               
          It is unclear how many schools currently provide a curriculum        
          that meets this requirement. The State Board currently has a         
          Scientific Literacy Program that provides grants for such            
          equipment and certainly schools have substantial resources in        
          general state aid, the ADA Block Grant and other programs to         
          provide such equipment.                                              
          STATE MANDATES NOTE (State Board of Education)                       
          Same as SBE fiscal note.
