Schools

Schools are places or systems for learning or education and may be physical locations composed of a building or a campus that includes multiple buildings. Schools may also be virtual or online institutions that offer educational experiences and degrees. Schools are usually physical locations for children in grades 1-12, as well as kindergarten and pre-kindergarten (pre-K) classes.

In Illinois, schools are recognized as places for education and can be both physical locations and virtual institutions. The Illinois School Code governs the establishment and administration of public schools in the state, including those serving grades K-12. This includes regulations on school curricula, teacher qualifications, student attendance, and school district governance. Illinois also has specific laws and regulations for the operation of private and charter schools, as well as home schooling. The Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) oversees public education and ensures compliance with state and federal laws. For virtual or online schools, the ISBE provides guidelines and accreditation to ensure that these institutions meet educational standards. Pre-kindergarten programs are also included under the state's educational system, with specific guidelines for early childhood education.
