AN ACT concerning criminal law.
|
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois, |
represented in the General Assembly:
|
Section 5. The Criminal Code of 1961 is amended by changing |
Section 11-9.3 as follows:
|
(720 ILCS 5/11-9.3)
|
Sec. 11-9.3. Presence within school zone by child sex
|
offenders prohibited.
|
(a) It is unlawful for a child sex offender to knowingly be |
present in any
school building, on real property comprising any |
school, or in any conveyance
owned, leased, or contracted by a |
school to transport students to or from
school or a school |
related activity when persons under the age of 18 are
present |
in the building, on the grounds or in
the conveyance, unless |
the offender is a parent or guardian of a student
present in |
the building, on the grounds or in the conveyance or unless the
|
offender has permission to be present from the
superintendent |
or the school board or in the case of a private school from the
|
principal. In the case of a public school, if permission is |
granted, the
superintendent or school board president must |
inform the principal of the
school where the sex offender will |
be present. Notification includes the
nature of the sex |
offender's visit and the hours in which the sex offender will
|
be present in the school. The sex offender is responsible for |
notifying the
principal's office when he or she arrives on |
school property and when he or she
departs from school |
property. If the sex offender is to be present in the
vicinity |
of children, the sex offender has the duty to remain under the |
direct
supervision of a school official. A child sex offender |
who violates this
provision is
guilty of a Class 4 felony.

loiter on a public
way within 500 feet of a school building or |
real property comprising any school
while persons under the age |
of 18 are present in the building or on the
grounds,
unless the |
offender is a parent or guardian of a student present in the
|
building or on the grounds or has permission to be present from |
the
superintendent or the school board or in the case of a |
private school from the
principal. In the case of a public |
school, if permission is granted, the
superintendent or school |
board president must inform the principal of the
school where |
the sex offender will be present. Notification includes the
|
nature of the sex offender's visit and the hours in which the |
sex offender will
be present in the school. The sex offender is |
responsible for notifying the
principal's office when he or she |
arrives on school property and when he or she
departs from |
school property. If the sex offender is to be present in the
|
vicinity of children, the sex offender has the duty to remain |
under the direct
supervision of a school official. A child sex |
offender who violates this
provision is
guilty of a Class 4 |

a child sex |
offender from residing within 500 feet of a school building or |
the
real property comprising any school that persons under 18 |
attend if the
