Update to Rules for Administration of the Public School Finance Act of 1994 (1 CCR 301-39)

*NEW* Notice of Rulemaking – May 2025 SBE Meeting

At the State Board of Education meeting in May, the board will vote on a notice of rulemaking for the School Finance Rules. The proposed rules include a change to simplify the at-risk count requirements for students in schools participating in the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP).  The Department will also discuss potential guidance and potential rules related to private school students enrolled in public schools, and to mealtimes.  The proposed rule changes also include some other technical and clarifying changes. Finally, the rulemaking will incorporate rules (to be determined) for the suspension and restart of student-level census block data collection pursuant to HB 25-1320. After the rules are noticed in May, a hearing will be held in August.

Comments on the proposed rules are encouraged and can be sent to Jennifer Okes at okes_j@cde.state.co.us.
