C.R.S. Section 22-33-201
Legislative declaration


The general assembly hereby finds that except when a student’s behavior would cause imminent harm to others in the school or when an incident requires automatic expulsion as defined by state law or a school’s conduct and discipline code, expulsion should be the last step taken after several attempts to deal with a student who has discipline problems. The general assembly further finds that school districts should work with the student’s parent or guardian and with state agencies and community-based nonprofit organizations to develop alternatives to help students who are at risk of expulsion before expulsion becomes a necessary step and to support students who are unable to avoid expulsion.
