QUESTION: A school board that wishes to preserve the exceptions in 820 ILCS 112/10(b-10)(1) and (2), added by P.A. 101-177, should consult its board attorney. Note: Attorneys caution that using the exceptions in 820 ILCS 112/10 (b-10)(1) and (2). added by P.A. 101-177, may trigger litigation.

Has the Board adopted the exceptions into this policy, adding to #5 the following: "unless the applicant's wage or salary history is a matter of public record, or is contained in a document completed by the applicant's current or former employer and then made available to the public by the employer, or then submitted or posted by the employer to comply with State or federal law; or the applicant is a current employee applying for a position with the same current employer."? ___No (default) ___Yes The Board has consulted its board attorney and has adopted the exceptions into the policy. Add to #5 the following: "unless the applicant's wage or salary history is a matter of public record, or is contained in a document completed by the applicant's current or former employer and then made available to the public by the employer, or then submitted or posted by the employer to comply with State or federal law; or the applicant is a current employee applying for a position with the same current employer."

L.1.ai. Policy 7:270 Administering Medicines to Students.
QUESTION: Optional. 105 ILCS 145/27 , added by P.A. 101-428, permits a district to maintain a supply of undesignated glucagon in any secure location that is immediately accessible to a school nurse or delegated care aide. A school board must ensure that it does not adopt this section into policy unless it is prepared to implement it. Consult the board attorney about the consequences of informing the community that the district will obtain a prescription for a supply of undesignated glucagon, and implement a plan for their use, and then not doing it, as doing so may be fraught with legal liabilities. The superintendent is given broad authority to implement this section; however, several preliminary steps should occur with the assistance of the board attorney. They include, but are not limited to: (1) investigating the feasibility of obtaining a prescription for a supply of undesignated glucagon in the name of the district or one of its schools, and (2) outlining the advantages and disadvantages of implementing this plan based upon each district's individual resources and circumstances, and student population's needs. Has the Board adopted the School District Supply of Undesignated Glucagon subsection? ___Yes (default) ___No (IASB will delete the School District Supply of Undesignated Glucagon subsection and its Void Policy language)

L.1.aj. Policy 5:50 Drug and Alcohol-Free Workplace; E-Cigarette, Tobacco and Cannabis Prohibition.
QUESTION #1: An employee is on call when the employer schedules him or her with at least 24 hours' notice to be on standby or otherwise responsible for performing employment-related tasks either at the employer's location or another previously-designated location. Consult the board attorney regarding how the board wants to treat employees who may be considered on call, e.g., superintendents, principals, coaches, and/or maintenance workers, etc. Has the board adopted the phrase "or being on call" into this policy? ___Yes (default) ___No (IASB will remove"or being on call") QUESTION #2: Optional. Including the statutory example that includes the term vape pen provides notice that vaping products are also prohibited through the term e-cigarette. Choose from the following options: ___Include the default sentence (default) ___Replace "includes, but is not limited to, any electronic nicotine delivery system (ENDS), electronic cigar, electronic cigarillo, electronic pipe, electronic hookah, vape pen, or similar product or device, and any components or parts that can be used to build the product or 'device" with "shall have the meaning provided in the Prevention of Tobacco Use by Minors and Sale and Distribution of Tobacco Products Act, 720 ILCS 675/1(a-9)"

L.1.ak. Policy 8:30 Visitors to and Conduct on School Property.
Question 1: For ease of administration, this text is broader than 105 ILCS 5/24-24, requiring a hearing for both school events and meetings. See Nuding v. Cerro Gordo Community Unit School Dist., 313 III.App3d 344 (4th Dist. 2000) (board was authorized to ban parent from attending all school events and extracurricular activities by 105 ILCS 5/24-24; the ban was based on the parent's exposing a toy gun and a pocketknife at a board meeting). The court in Nuding did not specifically answer whether a board meeting qualified as a school event under 105 ILCS 5/24-4, but upheld the board's right to enforce conduct rules at its meetings under 105 ILCS 5/10-20.5. Consult the board attorney before narrowing the text, especially if the board has put the current text into practice and now plans to narrow it. This issue involves a balancing of the Board's interest in the orderly transaction of its public business and the efficiency of its meetings against an individual's: (a) statutory rights attend meetings and/or comment to and ask questions of the board (105 ILCS 5/10-16 and 5 ILCS 120/2.06(g)) and (b) constitutional freedoms and rights of speech, the press, assembly, and to petition the government (U.S. Constitution, First Amendment and III. Constitution, Art I, §§ 1, 2, 4, and 5). Does the board want to narrow the policy text to mirror 105 ILCS 5/24-24? ___No (default) ___Yes ("or meetings" will be removed from the subheading and the first sentence of the subsection)
