2017-18 Student Residential Approval Entries in I-Star:

Please be reminded that beginning with the 2017-18 school year, any student who is residentially placed by the school district at a special education private facility, will need to have 2 records entered in I-Star - one for the Residential services (R) and one for the Tuition services (T.)

This is true even when the student is receiving tuition and residential services at the same facility as “combo” facility codes have been eliminated. In addition, the student records should be marked as “dually enrolled” in I-Star.

Questions, please contact Jamie Johnson jjohnson@isbe.net or phone 217-782-5256.
