| CO | Signed into law 06/2002 | P-12 | Defines "on-line pupil enrollment" as the number of pupils enrolled, on October 1 in a budget year, in an on-line program, minus any such pupils who were enrolled in any such on-line program for the 2001-02 school year. Modifies the definition of "pupil enrollment" to include a pupil who was enrolled during the 2001-02 school year in an on-line program and who is enrolled and participates in any such on-line program on October 1 within the applicable budget year or the school day nearest said date. Defines "district on-line funding" as the amount of minimum per pupil funding multiplied by a school district's on-line pupil enrollment. Excludes on-line pupils from the requirement that a school district set aside a specified amount per pupil for capital reserve and instructional supplies and materials. Requires school districts to report on-line pupil enrollment to the state board of education (state board). Allows charter schools to provide on-line programs. Provides funding for up to 135 students per year to enroll in on-line programs who were enrolled in a public school after October 1 of the preceding school year or who were enrolled in a private school or a home-school program in the preceding school year. States that the increase in the number of funded positions for on-line programs may be funded with moneys from the state education fund. Instructs the department to allocate the funded on-line program positions to applying school districts and charter schools, and establishes criteria for the allocation.
Exempts on-line students from any limit on the number of students that may enroll in a charter school, and prohibits a school district from restricting the number of on-line students that may enroll in a charter school. Exempts on-line students from the determination of whether a majority of the charter school's students reside within the chartering school district or a contiguous school district. Requires a charter school to receive 100% of the district's per pupil on-line funding for on-line students enrolled in the charter school. Exempts charter schools from the requirement to set aside a per pupil amount for capital reserve with regard to on-line students and from paying the per pupil amount for special education services for such students.
