Criteria Considered  \nCriteria considered in the review of age range deviation applications include:  \na. Any unique circumstances or changes that have occurred within the school year that are beyond the control of the program.  \nb. How long does the program anticipate that the unique circumstance will impact programming?  \nc. What might a potential backup plan be if the request for deviation is denied?  \nd. All scenarios will be evaluated based on the:  \ni. Individual program’s circumstances as presented in the request .  \nii. Length of time deviation is needed.  \niii. Program’s plan for compliance and the effect of the deviation on affected students’ overall educational programming.  \n3.  Important Reminders/Additional Information  \na. Deviation requests are not approvable if the request is in lieu of opening a new classroom or adjusting scheduling of students in courses. They also are not approvable in instances where a student’s developmental level more closely matches that of students in a classroom, but their age falls outside of the appropriate range.  \n4.  Notification of Approval/Denial  \na. ISBE will issue an approval determination based on documentation provided in the application  \nrequest submitted. The program will receive notification of approval or denial via email  \ncommunications.  \nb. Any deviation, if approved, is valid for a time period less than the current school year. Deviation approval is not ongoing, and each deviation approval has a definitive end date.  \nc. All classrooms should be in compliance with age range and class size regulatory requirements at the start of a new school year, as unique circumstances cannot be planned in advance.  \n5.
