This editorial defies logic. You can't claim to want charters held to the same standards as district schools while arguing they shouldn't be closed for poor performance. #EDcolo #COleg #COpolitics
Should Abraham Lincoln High School, and other low-performing Denver schools, be closed? (Editorial)
Denver Public Schools Superintendent Alex Marrero is right: the more accountability, the better for district schools that are struggling.

Or, we could pass the Protect Colorado’s Future graduated income tax, that would fund child care, K-12 and health care while giving 97% of Coloradans a tax cut . . . #edcolo #coleg #copolitics
Has Colorado’s budget crisis pushed a collapsing child care system to bet on markets as the only way to survive?
A bill would allow state enterprises to invest in a high-return portfolio -and child care gets the gains. The state treasurer says its unconstitutional.
