RULES FOR THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE COLLEGE ENTRANCE EXAM 
1 CCR 301-46
2207-R-1.00	STATEMENT OF BASIS AND PURPOSE.
Sections of these rules related to School Report Cards and Safe Schools have been repealed with the passage of SB 09-163 (the Education Accountability Act of 2009).  The statutory basis for the remaining section of these rules is found in §§ 22-2-106(1)(a) and (c), C.R.S., State Board Duties; § 22-2-107(1)(c), State Board Powers; and § 22-7-409(1.5), Assessments.
The statutory basis for these rules adopted August 10, 2000, is found in 22-6(1)(a) and (c), State Board - Duties; 22-2-107(1)(c), State Board - Powers; 22-7-409(1.5), Assessments.; 22-7-601 et seq., School Report Cards, 22-32-109.1(2)(b), Safe Schools, C.R.S.  
SB 00-186 requires that the State Board of Education determine through rule certain details of the report card format and data elements to be included, while seeking to eliminate duplication of data, and providing for submission timelines. Next, these rules ensure that any requirements of the administrator of the curriculum-based, achievement college entrance exam are met. The rules also establish policy regarding optional report cards for private schools, including provision for a fee schedule to cover costs.
SB 00-133 mandates State Board rules regarding safe schools reporting requirements that align with data reporting requirements for report cards in SB 00-186. Miscellaneous other provisions are included to meet the requirements of the acts.
1.01	STATEMENT OF FINDINGS AND REASONS FOR ADOPTION OF EMERGENCY RULES. The statutory basis for amendments to these rules adopted April 12, 2001 is 22-2-106(1)(a) and (c); 2202-107(1)(c); 22-7-409(1.5); 22-7-601 et seq., and 22-32-109.1(2)(b), C.R.S. following adoption of rules for the Administration of Education Reform on August 10, 2000, the Colorado State Board of Education adopted emergency rules - 2207-r-2.02(2)(d) and 3.01(1) through (4) - regarding technical details related to the definition of “counselor” for inclusion on the state report card and incorporation of the act “supervisor's manual of instructions for state testing,” on April 12, 2001. Both amendments were made in conformance with SB 01-108, which eliminates selected existing rules. Emergency rules are imperative for the welfare of students and teachers due to the April 25, 2001 state administration of the ACT.
1.02	STATEMENT OF BASIS AND PURPOSE. The statutory basis for amendments to these rules adopted August 9, 2001 is 22-2-106(1)(a) and (c); 2202-107(1)(c); 22-7-409(1.5); 22-7-601 et seq., and 22-32-109.1(2)(b), C.R.S. following adoption of rules for the Administration of Education the Reform on August 10, 2000, the Colorado State Board of Education adopted emergency rules - 2207-r-2.02(2)(d) and 3.01(1) through (4) - regarding technical details related to the definition of “counselor” for inclusion on the state report card (now “accountability report”) and incorporation of the ACT “supervisor's manual of instructions for state testing,” on April 12, 2001. Both amendments were made in conformance with SB 01-108, which eliminates selected existing rules. Additionally, these amendments conform rule terminology with SB 01-098, which requires a change from the term “report card” to the term “accountability report.” Emergency rules were imperative for the welfare of students and teachers due to the April 25, 2001 state administration of the ACT. Amendments proposed for adoption August 9, 2001 will make permanent these temporary emergency rules.
