Bringing the power of Denver’s citizens to the effort of school reform
The mission of A+ Denver is to harness the power of Denver’s civic community to dramatically increase student achievement in public education in Denver.
A+ Denver joins The Colorado Children’s Campaign and Metro Organizations for People in releasing a new report on DPS performance:
The report, titled, Denver’s Public Schools: Reforms, Challenges and the Future, was released June 15. It is a first of its kind analysis, offering a comprehensive look at how well DPS is performing in educating its students. The three community groups joined forces to produce the report because of a shared concern that unless the public can understand the true state of its public schools, it will be difficult to build the public will for the dramatic reform needed to improve student outcomes.
In releasing the report, A+ Board Chairman Federico Peña stated, “Our community faces a crisis and the people of this city need to know that.” He added, today’s report should start a robust public dialogue about what we as a community can do and must do for all children in Denver to receive a truly quality education.
