AI Summary

This bill amends the Revised School Code to add two new sections. Section 1136a requires school districts, intermediate school districts, and public school academies that have a face mask policy to provide a waiver process for parents or students to opt out. It also prohibits discriminatory treatment of students who have received a waiver. Section 1136b prohibits school districts, intermediate school districts, and public school academies from requiring asymptomatic students to be tested for COVID-19 in order to attend school, ride school transportation, or participate in school activities. It also prohibits discriminatory treatment of students based on their COVID-19 testing status. The bill will only take effect if Senate Bill 603 is also enacted into law.
