#BetterTogether

Teacher working with students

Jeffco is.... Better Together

The new school year brings excitement, challenge, and hope. Our focus as we launch this vitally important year is to be #BetterTogether. Through shared commitments and consistent practices that engage our staff, students, families and community, we can achieve the best possible outcomes for the students we serve.

Jeffco Public Schools believes in the value of family and community involvement in our schools. Active family engagement helps to ensure the unique needs of the school’s community are served through a positive collaboration between families, school leaders and staff, and members of the community. When we all work together, we are #Better Together.

BOARD UPDATES

recent action
November 2021
In November, the Board of Education learned about and discussed restorative justice practices and campus supervisors in our schools, ESSER III funding, current COVID mitigation strategies, the superintendent’s findings in her review of academic functions, the 4th quarter financial report, the mid-bond assessment of Moss Adams for the district’s Capital Improvement Program, student enrollment and a budget update. The Board adopted a proclamation recognizing November 13-21 as Hunger and Homelessness Awareness week in JPS and a resolution expanding career readiness opportunities in JPS, and approved: (1) the IGA and loan terms to proceed with financing for replacement of Meyers Pool, (2) an increase to the current Chrome agreement to allow for use of ESSER funds in purchase of devices to enhance K-4 learning, and (3) bids for RVHS and Jeffco Open School’s addition/renovation projects. Jeffco legislators joined current and incoming board members at Warren Tech for a student-provided breakfast to discuss upcoming legislation and education issues impacting Jeffco students, families and staff. On November 29, three newly elected board members (Danielle Varda/District 1, Paula Reed/District 2, Mary Parker/District 3) were sworn in while former board members Susan Harmon, Brad Rupert and Rick Rush were bid farewell following the certification of election results. Stephanie Schooley was voted the new board president.
