DUAL ENROLLMENT -- Amends existing law to provide for the dual enrollment of a student in a public charter school and to provide for related restrictions and clarifications.

DUAL ENROLLMENT

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

Section 33-203, Idaho Code requires school districts to allow students who are enrolled in a non-public school or a public charter school to be dually enrolled in the school district. This is typically done if a student is attending a school that does not have an elective program such as band or an athletic program. The enrollment is restricted to a school district whose attendance zone the student resides in. There has been some confusion if this also applies to other charter schools whose attendance area the student resides in. The proposed amendments would clarify that the provisions apply to all public schools including charter schools and would specify that these students are not calculated in the charter schools cap and that this provision cannot be used to circumvent the charter schools lottery process.
