RULES FOR
THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE PUBLIC 
SCHOOL FINANCE ACT OF 1994

Justification for Emergency Rules:

A new program, “Fast College Fast Jobs Program”, enacted through SB07-148, allows certain school districts and certain “target schools” to implement a dual enrollment program that would allow students to receive a high school diploma and an Associates Degree or Technical Certificate within five years.   

On pages 17 and 18 of the Rules for the Administration of the Public School Finance Act of 1994, section 5.19 Pupils Enrolled in Fast College Fast Jobs Education Program has been added. 

It is imperatively necessary for immediate adoption of emergency rules to comply with the Article 35.5 under Title 22, C.R.S., to allow eligible school districts time to establish programs beginning in FY2007-08.  Compliance with the requirements of section 24-4-103 would be contrary to the public interest.
