Fiscal Note, Senate Floor Amendment No. 3 (IL State Board of Education) HB 2170 (S-AM 3) includes new requirements for the State Board of Education (Board) and school districts that will have a fiscal impact. This fiscal impact estimate only addresses known or estimated costs for the Board and PreK-12 public school districts and not costs to other State agencies or other entities impacted by the amendments. The Board is tasked with providing staff support to 3 new advisory committees and one expanded advisory committee (KIDS Advisory Committee, Whole Child Task Force, and Inclusive History Commission; Professional Review Panel), adopting new learning standards (computer science and social science), overseeing the creation and/or expansion of programs (Freedom Schools), and will provide technical assistance to districts in implementing new mandates implemented. While existing staff will be able to take on some of the new work, new staff will likely be hired. The Board estimates that each additional staff member needed will cost $115,000 annually. To implement the requirements of these amendments, ISBE estimates needed an additional 3 staff for a total cost of $345,000. The legislation creates the Freedom Schools Grant Program which is subject to appropriation. ISBE estimates this program would cost $85,000 for every 120 students enrolled (this estimate is based on the EBF Cost factor of 1 teacher for every 120 students for Extended Day Supports). The legislation includes new requirements for school districts including expanded accelerated placement opportunities for students and new graduation and coursework requirements (computer literacy, computer science, foreign language and laboratory science). Additionally, once the Board completes adoption of new learning standards school districts will be required to implement these new standards. It is not known what these new requirements will cost school districts.
