Accelerated placement means the placement of a learner in an educational setting with curriculum that is usually reserved for learners who are older or in higher grades than the learner. Accelerated placement opportunities need not be limited to early entrance to kindergarten or first grade, acceleration in a single subject, and/or grade acceleration. A student who enters kindergarten or first grade early and continues to transition to the next subsequent grade level annually is to be considered accelerated each year.
