Statutory Authority |
The statutory authority for the enactment of these Rules and the repeal of previously existing
Rules 1 CCR 301-8, Rules 2220-R-1.00 through 2220-R-10.07 (2) adopted by the State Board of
Education on June 11, 1992, is found in Article 20 of Title 22, C.R.S., generally in Sections 22-20-

Description of Subjects/Issues |
The purpose of these Rules is to provide the administrative framework for services offered to students pursuant to the terms of the Exceptional Children’s Educational Act (ECEA). Current Rules 1 CCR 301-8, 2220-R-11.00 through 11.07 (5) are not affected by this enactment. The Rules reflect changes in educational practices and the manner of delivery of services to students within the legal parameters of the ECEA that have occurred since the prior Rules were originally enacted in 1976. The definitions of handicapping conditions and the eligibility criteria for receiving services have been clarified. The involvement of facilities that offer special education services to students has been recognized,
and the conditions for approval for reimbursement have been established. Additionally, the
criteria for creating and maintaining an administrative unit are set forth as are standards for the
provision of educational services to eligible students. The Rules outline the procedure to be
followed in identifying, assessing and serving those children eligible for services under the ECEA.
The Rules also elaborate on the various procedural safeguards available to administrative units
and children and their parents pursuant to the ECEA. |
