SCH CD-SUPERINTENDENT-CEO

Amends the School Code. In provisions requiring a school board (other than the Chicago school district) to employ a superintendent, allows the school board in a school district with boundaries that lie in 3 counties, one county of which has a population exceeding 1,000,000 inhabitants, that has on staff properly licensed assistant superintendents or directors in the areas of instruction, finance, special education, assessments, and career and technology education, to instead appoint a chief executive officer to serve as its superintendent. Requires this chief executive officer to be a person of recognized administrative ability and management experience, hold a master's degree, have been employed with the school district for a minimum of 5 years in an administrative capacity, be responsible for the management of the district, and have all other powers and duties of a superintendent. Exempts the chief executive officer from provisions of the School Code concerning educator qualifications for a period of 5 years. Allows the school board to reappoint the chief executive officer after the 5-year period if the chief executive officer has made substantial progress towards a standard or alternative administrative license, if a program for such is available.
