Illinois accelerated placement framework

Illinois requires school districts to maintain an accelerated-placement policy, including pathways for early entrance, whole-grade acceleration, and single-subject acceleration.

What this means for families: This confirms an acceleration policy, not necessarily a gifted program. Ask the district for its policy, evaluation process, and advanced-coursework rules.
