THE DAY:
Thursday, October 1, 2020 is the official student membership count day for Colorado public school districts.
IT’S ABOUT THE FUNDING:
Allocation of financial resources is strongly tied to the accurate identification of all students who are eligible to be included in the official membership (must be registered, scheduled, and present). EACH STUDENT COUNTS: All district students who are in membership (attendance and enrollment) on October 1 are eligible to be counted.
THE WINDOW:
The 11-day count window is from Thursday, September 24 through Thursday, October 8. This window works like a funnel: if a student is absent on October 1, the surrounding days will be used as a basis for counting the student.
