C.R.S. § 22-29.5-110: Nonacademic and extracurricular services and activities - counseling services - physical education - athletics.

(1) A local education provider shall provide nonacademic and extracurricular services and activities in such a manner as is necessary to afford a qualified student with a disability an equal opportunity to participate in the services and activities. Nonacademic and extracurricular services and activities include counseling services, transportation, health services, athletics, courses, special interest groups or clubs, referrals, and employment of students.

(2) A local education provider shall ensure that a qualified student with a disability is not counseled toward more restrictive career objectives than are students without disabilities with similar interests and abilities.

(3) A local education provider that provides separate or different physical education and athletic activities to students with disabilities may do so only if consistent with the least restrictive environment requirements in section 22-29.5-109 and only if a qualified student with a disability is not denied the opportunity to compete for athletic teams or to participate in athletics courses that are not separate or different from those teams or courses offered to students without disabilities. Competitive or selective programs may require a selection process if the program criteria is not discriminatory.
