Enrollment Limits. 1. The Charter School currently serves grades K-10, and may add one grade level each Contract Year (as defined in Paragraph 8.1) until JRCS serves students K- 12. 2. The Charter School shall cap enrollment at the reasonable operating capacity of its facilities pursuant to Paragraph 4.6 below. The parties agree that the reasonable operating capacity of the Charter School’s current K-8 facility is 325 students, and that the reasonable operating capacity of its 9-12 high school facility (a portion of the old R-5 High School building currently leased by JRCS) is 125 students. If the Charter School facilities are expanded to accommodate more than 450 students in aggregate, JRCS may increase the enrollment cap with the written approval of the District’s Superintendent. Such approval shall not be withheld except as reasonably necessary to facilitate academic success, to facilitate the school’s ability to meet its objectives; and to ensure enrollment does not exceed the reasonable operating capacity of the Charter School facility. 3. In the event the number of Prospective Students applying for admission exceeds any limit established by the JRCS Board or this Agreement, students shall be selected for enrollment in the Charter School on the basis of an open, nondiscriminatory process consistent with law. Such selection process shall be in writing and shall be submitted by JRCS to the District for review and approval prior to its adoption, or material modification. Once enrolled, a Charter School Student may continue to attend as long as he/she is in good standing and is continuously enrolled. 4. JRCS shall not permit any student who is subject to the compulsory school attendance requirements set forth in the Colorado School Attendance Law of 1963, as amended, to enroll on a part-time basis or otherwise attend school on a schedule which does not fulfill such requirements, except upon receipt of documentation sufficient to establish that one or more of the exceptions to compulsory attendance set forth in section 22-33-104(2), C.R.S. is applicable to such student.
