SCHOOL SAFETY DRILL ACT

 

On August 16, 2021, the Governor signed a bill that amended the School Safety Drill Act. The details are as follows:

       Provides that parents or guardians must receive prior notice of a law enforcement drill not less than 5 days prior to the drill.

       Provides that a law enforcement drill:

o   must not include simulations that mimic an actual school shooting incident or active shooter event

o   must be announced in advance to all school personnel and students prior to the commencement of the drill

o   must include content that is age appropriate and developmentally appropriate

o   must include and involve school personnel, including school-based mental health professionals

o   must include trauma-informed approaches to address the concerns and well-being of students and school

     personnel. Requires a school district to include in its annual review of each school building’s emergency and

     crisis response plans, protocols, and procedures on examination of the efficacy and effects of law enforcement

     drills. Effective immediately, “schools must provide sufficient information and notification to parents and

     guardians in advance of any walk-through lockdown drill that involves the participation of students and must

     also provide to parents and guardians an opportunity to exempt their child for any reason from

     participating in the walk-through lockdown drill”.

We will continue to collaboratively work with local law enforcement to implement these drills. If you have any questions, please contact your building principal.

SOPPA
 

The Student Online Personal Protection Act, or SOPPA, is the data privacy law that regulates student data collection and use by schools, the Illinois State Board of Education, and third-party vendors.

As a part of SOPPA, these vendors must enter into Data Privacy Agreements (DPA) with each district they work with. These agreements outline what data is stored, how it is protected, what the company can and cannot do with that data, and what they will do in the event of a data breach.

Illinois school districts are required to make publicly accessible their written agreements in place with vendors of online tools and software. DPAs provide details regarding vendors' access and use of student information for school purposes.
