Illinois requires schools to be full-time in person this fall, despite pleas to exempt non-vaccinated students

The Illinois State Board of Education has adopted a resolution requiring daily in-person learning next school year with limited exceptions for remote learning.
Though some Board members expressed reservations about the resolution’s language during an hour-long discussion, they voted unanimously in favor.
The vote came after several parents asked the board to reject the proposal in consideration of children who may still be too young in the fall to receive COVID-19 vaccinations.
A draft of the resolution states that “all schools must resume fully in-person learning for all student attendance days, provided that ... remote instruction be made available for students who are not eligible for a COVID-19 vaccine and are under a quarantine order by a local public health department or the Illinois Department of Public Health.”
