(2) facilitating the student placement process     through which children of active duty military personnel are not disadvantaged by variations in attendance requirements, scheduling, sequencing, or assessment;
(3) facilitating the qualification and eligibility     for enrollment and educational programs of children of active duty military personnel;

(105 ILCS 70/32)
Sec. 32. Educational records for children of active duty military personnel.
(a) In the event that official educational records cannot be released to parents for the purpose of transfer, the custodian of the records in the sending state shall prepare and furnish to the parent a complete set of unofficial educational records to the extent feasible. Upon receipt of the unofficial educational records by a school in the receiving state, the school shall enroll and appropriately place the student based on the information provided in the unofficial records, pending validation by the official records as quickly as possible. This subsection (a) does not preclude the school in the receiving state from performing subsequent evaluations to ensure appropriate placement and continued enrollment of the student in a course or courses.
(b) Simultaneous with the enrollment and conditional placement of a student, the school in the receiving state shall request the student's official educational record from the school in the sending state. Upon receipt of this request, the school in the sending state shall process and furnish the official educational records to the receiving state within 15 days.

A student transferring after the start of the school year in the receiving state shall enter the school in the receiving state at his or her validated grade level at an accredited school in the sending state. This Section does not preclude the school in the receiving state from performing subsequent evaluations to ensure appropriate placement of the student.

(105 ILCS 70/35)
Sec. 35. Course placement; program placement; placement flexibility; graduation; extracurricular activities; absences related to deployment activities for children of active duty military personnel.
(a) If a student transfers before or during the school year, the school in the receiving state shall initially honor placement of the student in educational courses based on the student's enrollment in the school in the sending state or educational assessments conducted at the school in the sending state if the courses are offered and space is available. Course placement includes, but is not limited to, honors, International Baccalaureate, Advanced Placement, vocational, and technical and career pathways courses. Continuing the student's academic program from the school in the sending state and promoting placement in academically and career-challenging courses must be paramount when considering placement. This subsection (a) does not preclude the school in the receiving state from performing subsequent evaluations to ensure appropriate placement and continued enrollment of the student in the course or courses.
(b) The receiving school shall initially honor the placement of the student in educational programs based on current educational assessments conducted at the school in the sending state or participation or placement in like programs in the school in the sending state. Such programs include, but are not limited to, gifted and talented programs and English as a Second Language (ESL). This subsection (b) does not preclude the school in the receiving state from performing subsequent evaluations to ensure appropriate placement of the student.
(c) The school district of a school shall have flexibility in waiving course or program prerequisites or other preconditions for placement in offered courses or programs. The school district of a school shall work with a transfer student to determine an appropriate schedule that ensures that a student will graduate, provided that the student has met the district's minimal graduation requirements, which may be modified provided that the modifications are a result of scheduling issues and not a result of the student's academic failure.
(d) If a student transfers to a new school district during his or her senior year and the receiving school district cannot make reasonable adjustments under this Section to ensure graduation, then the school district shall make every reasonable effort to ensure that the school district from where the student transfers issues the student a diploma.
(e) Schools shall facilitate the opportunity for transitioning military children's inclusion in extracurricular activities, to the extent the children are otherwise qualified and space is available as determined by the school principal.
(f) A student whose parent or legal guardian is an active duty member of the uniformed services and has been called to duty for, is on leave from, or has immediately returned from deployment to a combat zone or combat-support posting must be granted additional absences, at the discretion of the school district's superintendent, to visit with his or her parent or legal guardian relative to such leave or deployment of the parent or guardian.

agencies of government, local education agencies, and military
installations concerning the State's participation in and compliance

be construed to protect such person from suit or liability for
damage, loss, injury, or liability caused by the intentional or
willful and wanton misconduct of such person.

alleged act, error, or omission that occurred within the scope of
 Interstate Commission employment, duties, or responsibilities,
or that the defendant had a reasonable basis for believing
occurred within the scope of Interstate Commission
employment, duties, or responsibilities, provided that the
actual or alleged act, error, or omission did not result from
intentional or willful and wanton misconduct on the part of
such person.
(i) To the extent not covered by the state involved, member state,
or the Interstate Commission, the representatives or
employees of the Interstate Commission shall be held
harmless in the amount of a settlement or judgment,
including attorney's fees and costs, obtained against such
persons arising out of an actual or alleged act, error, or
omission that occurred within the scope of Interstate
Commission employment, duties, or responsibilities, or that
such persons had a reasonable basis for believing occurred
within the scope of Interstate Commission employment,
duties, or responsibilities, provided that the actual or alleged
act, error, or omission did not result from intentional or willful
and wanton misconduct on the part of such persons.
