Allow for alternate registration limitation in Vega Program
In addition to the age limits for Program Registration, it would be helpful to be able to limit by grade.
While age is a useful limit for early learning programs, many school age programs are limited by grade range. The option to select limit by grade, and then define the grades that can register, would help libraries when determining who can register for a program. Currently, libraries have to determine the age for the program based on the school registration birthday cut off, and that may not accurately reflect who is eligible to register. This causes confusion and friction for patrons, who may be prevented from registering for a program they are eligible for.
We’d like to see the option to limit by age or grade be included in each program, and then a way to select the grades that are eligible to register. In cases where grade is selected, we’d like to see that displayed in the public view in the same place the age is currently displayed.

Most libraries base children's programming on the grade level. Having the option to limit by grade would make it easier for both staff and patrons during the program registration process.

Implementing alternative restrictions for children and teen programs is necessary, as eligibility based on grade level is more accurate.
