[aisle] Late Fees for Books

Mon Nov 28 12:10:41 CST 2022

I think the law in question is actually this one:
https://ilga.gov/legislation/publicacts/fulltext.asp?Name=102-0805&GA=102

It broadens the school code on waivers from simply "fees" to also
incorporate "fines for lost school materials," and also broadens
eligibility from just free/reduced lunch to students experienced
homelessness.
