  • Urge the DPS Board to Demand Legislative Action Toward Fully & Fairly Funded Public Schools
    For decades, TABOR (the so-called Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights) has restricted what the state can spend for schools. Now, federal funding and revenue changes pose additional threats to adequate, sustainable, and equitable school funding. If you agree that public education is the most important investment we can make in the future of our students, families, communities, economy, and democracy, then it's time to take action. Let's make sure the Colorado legislature takes concrete steps in 2026 to protect and promote public education. Join your fellow public school supporters as we call on our legislators to create and fund Colorado's Blueprint for Student Success — a multi-year plan to secure a vibrant public education system for decades to come. Sign this petition today to encourage the Denver Public Schools Board of Education to pass a resolution in support of fully, fairly funded public education and the Blueprint for Student Success. Together, we can Get It Done!

  • Demand Public Hearings in Conway!
    This is taxation without representation. The superintendent and board are attempting to take a critical step for the district without consulting and informing stakeholders.

  • Public School Strong: Defend Against the Trump Administration’s Attacks
    Public education is under attack. From attempts to defund public schools through voucher scams, to efforts aimed at censoring educators and whitewashing history, the Trump Administration and its allies are threatening the future of education as we know it. This past week, the media began reporting that the administration has even begun efforts to dismantle the Department of Education. We can’t stay silent. That’s why we’re launching a national petition to amplify voices calling for strong, fully funded, and equitable public schools. Sign this petition and send a letter to your Congressional representatives urging them to take immediate action to protect our public schools.

    Pass the Fund Our New Haven Schools Resolution!

  • Golden
    Keep Public Dollars in PUBLIC Schools! Oppose Amendment 80!
    Vibrant, high-quality public schools are the key to thriving communities like ours.  Signing this petition – and urging others to sign as well – is an easy and effective way to get our school board to step up and help us protect public education from this attack. This measure would hurt public schools and threaten their funding. Public schools need more teachers, better teacher pay, and smaller class sizes. This measure will only make it harder to fund those improvements by opening the door to taking money from public schools—which serve 95% of Colorado students—to fund private schools.
