Accommodation Notice:    

• If you plan to attend a meeting and need accommodations, please notify Lori Kochevar, Kochevar_L@cde.state.co.us, at least 2 weeks prior to the meeting date. Advance notice allows CDE time to set up requested accommodations before the meeting. 

If you have requested accommodations for a meeting and are then unable to attend, we ask for at least a 72-hour notice of cancellation, so that CDE can be proactive with cancelling requested accommodation services ahead of the meeting. Thank you!
