		HB1316 Enrolled		LRB104 05886 LNS 15917 b
    AN ACT concerning education.
    Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:
    Section 5. The School Code is amended by changing Section
10-27.1A as follows:
    (105 ILCS 5/10-27.1A)
    (Text of Section from P.A. 103-609)
    Sec. 10-27.1A. Firearms in schools.
    (a) All school officials, including teachers, school
counselors, and support staff, shall immediately notify the
office of the principal in the event that they:
        (1) observe any person in possession of a firearm on
    school grounds;
        (2) become aware of any person in possession of a
    firearm on school grounds; or
        (3) become aware of any threat of gun violence on
    school grounds;
provided that taking such immediate action to notify the
office of the principal would not immediately endanger the
health, safety, or welfare of students who are under the
direct supervision of the school official or the school
official. If the health, safety, or welfare of students under
the direct supervision of the school official or of the school
		HB1316 Enrolled	- 2 -	LRB104 05886 LNS 15917 b
official is immediately endangered, the school official shall
notify the office of the principal as soon as the students
under his or her supervision and he or she are no longer under
immediate danger. A report is not required by this Section
when the school official knows that the person in possession
of the firearm is a law enforcement official engaged in the
conduct of his or her official duties. Any school official
acting in good faith who makes such a report under this Section
shall have immunity from any civil or criminal liability that
might otherwise be incurred as a result of making the report.
The identity of the school official making such report shall
not be disclosed except as expressly and specifically
authorized by law. Knowingly and willfully failing to comply
with this Section is a petty offense. A second or subsequent
offense is a Class C misdemeanor.
    (b) Upon receiving a report from any school official
pursuant to this Section, or from any other person, the
principal or his or her designee shall immediately notify a
local law enforcement agency. If the person found to be in
possession of a firearm on school grounds is a student, the
principal or his or her designee shall also immediately notify
that student's parent or guardian. If the report pertains to a
threat of firearm violence made by a student, the principal or
the principal's designee shall attempt to notify that
student's parent or guardian as soon as possible. The
principal or principal's designee shall further attempt to
		HB1316 Enrolled	- 3 -	LRB104 05886 LNS 15917 b
contact the student's parent or guardian so that the parent or
guardian may ensure that the student does not have access to a
firearm. Any principal or his or her designee acting in good
faith who makes such reports under this Section shall have
immunity from any civil or criminal liability that might
otherwise be incurred or imposed as a result of making the
reports. Knowingly and willfully failing to comply with this
Section is a petty offense. A second or subsequent offense is a
Class C misdemeanor. If the person found to be in possession of
the firearm on school grounds is a minor, the law enforcement
agency shall detain that minor until such time as the agency
makes a determination pursuant to clause (a) of subsection (1)
of Section 5-401 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, as to
whether the agency reasonably believes that the minor is
delinquent. If the law enforcement agency determines that
probable cause exists to believe that the minor committed a
violation of item (4) of subsection (a) of Section 24-1 of the
Criminal Code of 2012 while on school grounds, the agency
shall detain the minor for processing pursuant to Section
5-407 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987.
    (c) Upon receipt of any written, electronic, or verbal
report from any school personnel regarding a verified incident
involving a firearm in a school or on school owned or leased
property, including any conveyance owned, leased, or used by
the school for the transport of students or school personnel,
the superintendent or his or her designee shall report all
		HB1316 Enrolled	- 4 -	LRB104 05886 LNS 15917 b
such firearm-related incidents occurring in a school or on
school property to the local law enforcement authorities
immediately.
    (c-5) Schools shall report any written, electronic, or
verbal report of a verified incident involving a firearm made
under subsection (c) to the State Board of Education through
existing school incident reporting systems as they occur
during the year by no later than August 1 of each year. The
State Board of Education shall report data by school district,
as collected from school districts, and make it available to
the public via its website. The local law enforcement
authority shall, by March 1 of each year, report the required
data from the previous year to the Illinois State Police's
Illinois Uniform Crime Reporting Program, which shall be
included in its annual Crime in Illinois report.
    (d) As used in this Section, the term "firearm" shall have
the meaning ascribed to it in Section 1.1 of the Firearm Owners
Identification Card Act.
    As used in this Section, the term "school" means any
public or private elementary or secondary school.
    As used in this Section, the term "school grounds"
includes the real property comprising any school, any
conveyance owned, leased, or contracted by a school to
transport students to or from school or a school-related
activity, or any public way within 1,000 feet of the real
property comprising any school.

    Section 95. No acceleration or delay. Where this Act makes
		HB1316 Enrolled	- 9 -	LRB104 05886 LNS 15917 b
changes in a statute that is represented in this Act by text
that is not yet or no longer in effect (for example, a Section
represented by multiple versions), the use of that text does
not accelerate or delay the taking effect of (i) the changes
made by this Act or (ii) provisions derived from any other
Public Act.
    Section 99. Effective date. This Act takes effect upon
becoming law.

Reinserts the contents of the bill, but provides that the principal or principal's designee (rather than the principal or principal's designee in coordination with the local law enforcement agency) shall attempt to contact (rather than meet with) the student's parent or guardian to ensure the student does not have access to a firearm. Effective immediately.
