• Home and Hospital Instruction

    (refer to Board Policy 6:150)

    A student who is absent from school because of a medical condition may be eligible for instruction in the student’s home or hospital. Eligibility shall be determined by State law and the Illinois State Board of Education rule governing the continuum of placement options for home/hospital services. Appropriate educational services from qualified staff shall begin as soon as eligibility is established after receiving a written statement from a physician, physician assistant, or licensed advanced practice registered nurse.   Instructional or related services for a student receiving special education services will be determined by the student’s individualized education program.
