The bill amends the Revised School Code of 1976 by adding a new section, 1598, which establishes specific guidelines regarding the unenrollment of pupils from public and nonpublic schools. It prohibits schools from unenrolling a student solely based on a records request from another school. Additionally, it mandates that 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 required 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 the receiving school, the date of official enrollment, and a signature from an authorized official of the receiving school to verify the enrollment. This legislation aims to ensure that students are not unfairly unenrolled and that there is a clear process for transferring students between schools.
