302	302	10 (b) Whenever access to any person is granted pursuant to
303	303	11 paragraph (a) of this Section, at the option of that person or
304	304	12 the school, a qualified professional, who may be a
305	305	13 psychologist, counsellor or other advisor, and who may be an
306	306	14 employee of the school or employed by the parent or the
307	307	15 Department, may be present to interpret the information
308	308	16 contained in the student temporary record. If the school
309	309	17 requires that a professional be present, the school shall
310	310	18 secure and bear any cost of the presence of the professional.
311	311	19 If the parent or the Department so requests, the school shall
312	312	20 secure and bear any cost of the presence of a professional

314	314	22 (c) A parent's or student's or, if applicable, the
315	315	23 Department's Office of Education and Transition Services'

330	330	2 such request by the official records custodian.
331	331	3 (c-5) The time for response under this Section may be
332	332	4 extended by the school district by not more than 5 business
333	333	5 days from the original due date for any of the following
334	334	6 reasons:
335	335	7 (1) the requested records are stored in whole or in
336	336	8 part at other locations than the office having charge of
337	337	9 the requested records;
338	338	10 (2) the request requires the collection of a
339	339	11 substantial number of specified records;
340	340	12 (3) the request is couched in categorical terms and
341	341	13 requires an extensive search for the records responsive to
342	342	14 it;
343	343	15 (4) the requested records have not been located in the
344	344	16 course of routine search and additional efforts are being
345	345	17 made to locate them;
346	346	18 (5) the request for records cannot be complied with by
347	347	19 the school district within the time limits prescribed by
348	348	20 subsection (c) of this Section without unduly burdening or
349	349	21 interfering with the operations of the school district; or
350	350	22 (6) there is a need for consultation, which shall be
351	351	23 conducted with all practicable speed, with another public
352	352	24 body or school district or among 2 or more components of a
353	353	25 public body or school district having a substantial

366	366	2 The person making a request and the school district may
367	367	3 agree in writing to extend the time for compliance for a period
368	368	4 to be determined by the parties. If the requester and the
369	369	5 school district agree to extend the period for compliance, a
370	370	6 failure by the school district to comply with any previous
371	371	7 deadlines shall not be treated as a denial of the request for
372	372	8 the records.
373	373	9 (d) The school may charge its reasonable costs for the
374	374	10 copying of school student records, not to exceed the amounts
375	375	11 fixed in schedules adopted by the State Board, to any person
376	376	12 permitted to copy such records, except that no parent or
377	377	13 student shall be denied a copy of school student records as
378	378	14 permitted under this Section 5 for inability to bear the cost
379	379	15 of such copying. If consent is provided by a student or the
380	380	16 student's parent or guardian, then a copy of the student's
381	381	17 school student records shall be provided at no cost to the
382	382	18 Guardianship and Advocacy Commission, an independent service
383	383	19 coordination agency, or Equip for Equality to establish access
384	384	20 to adult disability services and related benefits.
385	385	21 (e) Nothing contained in this Section 5 shall make
386	386	22 available to a parent or student or, if applicable, the
387	387	23 Department's Office of Education and Transition Services
388	388	24 confidential letters and statements of recommendation

412	412	12 privileged or confidential, including but not limited to,
