MINOR
The bill was amended to correct a formatting error in the School Code that incorrectly listed Lunar New Year as a mandatory statewide school holiday. The change clarifies that school boards have the discretion to grant Lunar New Year as a special holiday rather than making it mandatory for all schools. Additionally, the bill updated specific General Election Day dates to reflect recent legislative actions.
Scope change
The scope of the Lunar New Year holiday was narrowed from a mandatory state-wide school closure to a discretionary special holiday that individual school boards may choose to observe.
REQUIREMENT

Changed the requirement for Lunar New Year in the School Code from a mandatory holiday for all schools to a special holiday that school boards may grant at their discretion.

TIMELINE

Updated the specific dates for General Election Day holidays in the School Code to reflect November 3, 2020, November 8, 2022, and November 5, 2024.
