Board sends revised dual‑enrollment policy to public review after clarifying graduation and special‑education access
Summary
Trustees reviewed Policy 303030 on dual enrollment, which clarifies graduation eligibility for newly enrolled students, participation in extracurriculars, special‑education access, enrollment priority and transportation; the board voted to move the policy into public review.
District staff presented extensive revisions to Policy 303030 (dual enrollment) to align district practice with state law and to clarify student eligibility for graduation and services. The proposed revisions address graduation eligibility for newly enrolled dual‑enrollment students, confirm how special‑education services are coordinated for students enrolling for specific classes, and clarify participation eligibility in academic and extracurricular programs.
Staff described enrollment priority language intended to ensure district students are not displaced by dual‑enrollment entrants when programs are full and discussed transportation and campus supervision implications. Trustees asked about graduation consequences for newly enrolled students and about how special‑education supports will follow students; staff said the policy clarifies these points to reduce ambiguity.
After discussion, the board moved the revised policy into the required public‑review period by motion. Staff will publish the redlined policy for public comment and return to the board after the review period.
