Daytime curfews continue to worry homeschool families

Waukegan’s ordinance reads as follows:

Sec. 15-16.1. School curfew.
(a) It shall be unlawful for any person under the age of 18 who is
enrolled in any public, private or parochial school to be present in any
public place, building, street or assembly in the city, other than school,
during any hours when school is in session during the regular school term,
unless:
(1) Accompanied by a parent, legal guardian or school official; or
(2) Engaged in school-related activities with written approval of school
authorities.

Homeschooling parents throughout Illinois, and the nation, are concerned that as cities continue to add such curfews, the possibility of legal issues arising for homeschoolers is continuing to increase.
