What’s in it
8. The district-to-community college sharing or concurrent enrollment program is administered by the department of education to promote rigorous academic or career and technical pursuits and to provide a wider variety of options to high school students to enroll in eligible nonsectarian courses at or through community colleges. The program is available to all resident students in grades through 12. The bill provides that if the community college offers the course using both instruction that is delivered in person and using instruction that is delivered primarily over the internet, then the student is required to enroll in the version of the course that uses instruction that is delivered in person unless the superintendent of the school district, or the superintendent’s designee, authorizes the student to enroll in the version of the course that uses instruction that is delivered primarily over the internet.
Read the full explanation
When determining whether to authorize the student to enroll in the version of the course that uses instruction that is delivered primarily over the internet, the superintendent, or the superintendent’s designee, is required to consider if the student is prepared for, and likely to be successful in, such a course. When making that determination, the bill authorizes the superintendent, or the superintendent’s designee, to consider any relevant factors, including potential scheduling conflicts.8(3).
