15-817.03. Participation by grant schools

(Rpld. 7/1/11)

A. A grant school is entitled to receive a grant pursuant to this article and shall have the option each school year of participating or not participating in the grant program established under this article. A school that wishes to participate in the program as a grant school must complete all applications with the department by February 15 of each calendar year for inclusion in the program for the following school year.

B. A grant school that participates in the grant program and that is entitled to redeem a grant for a qualifying pupil who enrolls in that grant school is not required to accept the grant as full payment for the educational and related services that the school provides to that qualifying pupil and may charge the qualifying pupil an additional amount representing the balance of the tuition and fees that remains payable after crediting the qualifying pupil with the amount of the grant received by the qualifying pupil under this article. A grant school that redeems grants under this article shall use the grant proceeds solely to provide educational goods, services and facilities for its qualifying pupils and is not entitled to receive, for redeeming a grant, any amount in excess of the tuition and fees customarily charged by the school to cover the cost of providing those educational goods, services and facilities.
