Change for our children. Change for our staff. Change for our safety.
Opinion: Denver’s board of education broke the law and violated our trust
"After listening to this meeting, we now understand the “Resign DPS” signs that have been popping up in yards across the city and in hashtags on social media. This is not a board serving the public or even taking school safety seriously. The members engaged in an egregious abdication of their responsibilities as elected officials."
