Home Schooling To help you decide if home schooling is right for your child please read the important information provided by the Illinois State Board of Education on this site: Illinois State Board of Education/Home Schooling MEDICAL CANNABIS-INFUSED PRODUCT ADMINISTRATION TRAINING/SEMINAR Training has been made available for the 2020-21 school year related to medical cannabis-infused product administration. PA 101 370, which expanded Ashley's Law and amended School Code 105 ILCS 5/22-33, states that a school district, public school, charter school, or nonpublic school must allow a school nurse or school administrator to administer a medical cannabis-infused product to a student who is a registered qualifying patient while at school. This training meets requirements for PEL-RN school nurses and school administrators prior to administering or assisting with self-administration of a medical cannabis- infused product. Professional development credit is available for the required training for PEL-RN school nurses and school administrators as well as for others who view the seminar.
