As with many states, there is no specific law in [[Illinois]] governing released time instruction or activities. In the 1946 Illinois Supreme Court decision of ''Latimer v. Board of Education'', 68 N.E. 2d 305, a challenge to released time was rejected and since then one hour per week at the request of parents has been allowed for off-site religious instruction during the school day.
