Estimated Number of ASCENT Program Participants
2025-26 Estimated Number of ASCENT Program Participants Intent to Participate (ITP) – Due November 13, 2024
If your school district is planning to participate in the ASCENT program next year, please complete the 2025-26 Estimated Number of ASCENT Program Participants Intent to Participate (ITP) web form below.
Although there have been changes to ASCENT and participation has been capped, the statute that requires CDE to collect this information did not change. Please report the number of ASCENT students you expect to have next year based on the number you submitted this year.
The deadline to submit is November 13, 2024.
Language in HB22-1390 requires: "Each local education provider that designates qualified students to participate in the ASCENT program shall, as provided by state board rule, report to the department the estimated number of ASCENT program participants that the local education provider will enroll for the following school year. The department, as part of its annual budget request to the general assembly, shall report the estimated total number of ASCENT program participants for the following school year." 22-35-108 (2)(b), C.R.S.
**Please note that the number you submit is only an estimate. The estimated total number reported will assist the Joint Budget Committee in calculating appropriations for the 2025-26 school year.
