1414 1 AN ACT concerning education.
1515 2 Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
1616 3 represented in the General Assembly:
1717 4 Section 1. Purpose. The General Assembly has determined
1818 5 that it is in the best interests of the State and the State's
1919 6 citizens that all high school students be required to take a
2020 7 one semester course in personal finance prior to graduation.
2121 8 Research has shown that such a course is significantly more
2222 9 effective if taught as a separate course in the 11th or 12th
2323 10 grade rather than embedded in another course or taught at an
2424 11 earlier time. Similarly, research has shown that before the
2525 12 course can be implemented, there must be time to develop
2626 13 curriculum and provide incentives for professional development
2727 14 for teachers of the course.
2828 15 Section 5. The School Code is amended by changing Sections
2929 16 27-12.1 and 27-22 as follows:
3030 17 (105 ILCS 5/27-12.1) (from Ch. 122, par. 27-12.1)
