Illinois School Cap Reform Faces Looming Vote

Statehouse News Service reports Illinois Assembly approval of a five percent cap on administrative spending tied to instructional spending increases. Affected districts may bypass the cap if two thirds of their boards vote to do so, sparking GOP proposals to redefine administrative spending and tighten waivers, penalties, and reporting timelines.

Suburban districts face waivers battle as lawmakers deny most

In Springfield last week the General Assembly denied six of ten waiver requests from south suburban districts and 29 of 79 statewide, while approving four. State Superintendent Joseph Spagnolo backed denying Matteson District 162 and Zion and Norridge cases. Schmutzler had argued against broad admin spending rules and highlighted discrepancies in attendance impact on state aid. The vote upheld a cap linked to instructional spending, though many waivers tied to definitions of administrative spending were granted under time pressure.
