The proposed bill seeks to amend the Revised School Code by adding a new section, 1598, which establishes specific guidelines regarding the unenrollment of pupils from public and nonpublic schools. Under this new provision, a school cannot unenroll a student solely based on a records request from another school. Additionally, a pupil can only be unenrolled if the governing body of the school receives written confirmation of enrollment from the school that will be receiving the pupil.

The written confirmation must include essential details such as the pupil's full name, date of birth, grade level at the receiving school, the name and address of that school, the date of official enrollment, and a signature from an authorized official of the receiving school to verify the enrollment. This bill aims to protect students from being unenrolled without proper confirmation of their new school placement, ensuring a smoother transition between educational institutions.
