| CA | Signed into law 06/2011 | P-12
Postsec. | From bill summary: Existing law requires the governing board of a community college district to assign a low enrollment priority to middle college high school students, to ensure that these students do not displace regularly admitted students.

college course that is required for the student's middle college high school program. http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/pub/11-12/bill/asm/ab_0201-0250/ab_230_bill_20110701_chaptered.pdf

| NC | Veto overridden: legislature has overridden governor's veto 06/2011 | P-12
Postsec. | Directs the state board of education and North Carolina Community College System to establish the Career and College Promise program to offer opportunities for high school students to dually enroll in community college courses that provide pathways (CTE pathway, college transfer pathway, cooperative innovative high schools program) leading to a certificate, diploma, or degree and providing entry-level jobs skills. Requires that credits earned through Promise allow students to complete a postsecondary credential in less time than would normally be required. Directs all existing dual enrollment programs (i.e., Huskins, Concurrent Enrollment, Cooperative and Innovative High Schools, Learn and Earn, and Learn and Earn Online) to be consolidated and replaced by Career and College Promise. Permits University of North Carolina (UNC) System institutions, subject to approval by the UNC Board of Governors, to offer as a Career and College pathway a cooperative innovative high schools program; requires that the pathway align with the K-12 curriculum and career and college ready standards adopted by the state board. Requires the North Carolina Community College System and department of public instruction to jointly develop and implement a program accountability plan to evaluate short- and long-term outcomes for Career and College Promise. Identifies minimum outcomes to be measured. Directs community colleges to generate budget FTE for instruction provided through the Promise. Establishes reporting requirement regarding the number and cost of high school FTE served as a result of the Career and College Promise program. Repeals § 115D-1.1 (permitting enrollment of a student under 16 in a community college) and § 115D-1.2 (providing for the Learn and Earn Online program).
Repeals language (1) prohibiting generation of community college budget FTE if a community college contracts with a local school administrative unit for a high school teacher to teach a college course, and (2) permitting local community college administrative boards and local school boards to establish cooperative programs permitting high school students to complete college courses for credit. Replaces with language permitting community colleges to offer (in collaboration with local school administrative units), cooperative innovative high school programs, academic transition pathways leading to a career technical education certificate or diploma, and college transfer certificates requiring completion of 30 semester credit hours transfer courses, including English and math, for high school juniors and seniors.
