Accelerated Placement Program

As of July 1, 2018, all schools in Illinois were required to have a policy and procedure for implementing accelerated placement of students within their districts. During this three-hour workshop, participants will learn what the law says, what board policy should say to be in compliance with the law, and how to implement a process for accelerating students. Participants will walk away with the following items:
Sample copy of acceleration referral form that will be used for their school
Sample copy of administrative response to a referral request that meets legislative requirements of acceleration act
Outline of evaluation process for their school
Sample copy of support plan that will be used for students who are accelerated
Sample copy of communication decision to deny request of acceleration to parent/guardian that includes information on the appeal process
