Petitions

The vast majority of Colorado and D11 voters agree: public dollars belong in public schools. Unfortunately, that fundamental value is under threat from Amendment 80, which would open the door to taking money out of underfunded public schools – which educate 95% of Colorado students – to pay for private schools that can pick and choose which students to admit.   As school board members, you are responsible for the quality and direction of our school district. This year you have an opportunity – and the duty – to stand up for public education and protect it from Amendment 80. We are your constituents and we ask that you act as leaders for public education by passing a resolution opposing Amendment 80 and urging the voters of D11 to vote NO on Amendment 80. Our school board leaders passing this resolution, along with similar resolutions across the state, can help galvanize this moment to shed light on this critical issue.
