Illinois Statutes Chapter 110. Higher Education § 805/3-80. Remediation data sharing agreement

(a) Beginning January 1, 2024, a community college district, upon a request from the school district of a high school located within the boundaries of the community college district, shall provide individualized disaggregated data on the enrollment of students in community college remediation courses from the most recently completed academic year. A signed remediation data sharing agreement between the school district and the community college district must be entered into before sharing remediation data.

(b) The remediation data sharing agreement shall meet all of the following requirements:

(c) If, within 90 calendar days after the school district's initial request to enter into a remediation data sharing agreement with the community college district under this Section, the school district and the community college district do not reach an agreement on all of the provisions of a remediation data sharing agreement, then the school district and community college district shall jointly implement the provisions of the model remediation data sharing agreement developed under subsection (d) for those provisions for which an agreement could not be reached and shall jointly implement the remaining provisions for which agreement could be reached. A community college district may combine its negotiations with multiple school districts to establish one uniform remediation data sharing agreement to use with all of the school districts with high schools located within the boundaries of the community college district or may negotiate individual remediation data sharing agreements with school districts.

(d) The Illinois Community College Board and the State Board of Education shall develop a model remediation data sharing agreement that may be used by school districts and community college districts under this Section. The model remediation data sharing agreement shall address all of the matters set forth in subsection (b) and shall be completed by January 1, 2024.

(e) The sharing of data under this Section must be in accordance with the requirements of the federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974. Nothing in this Section supersedes the federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 or rules adopted pursuant to the federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 or any federal or State laws or rules governing student privacy rights.
