My 7th grade son, Roman, and I went to the last Denver Public Schools board meeting to ask them to reconsider their recent change to limit public comment to two hours during their regular meetings.
You may have heard that the board announced that they would immediately start limiting how long parents, educators, and community members may address them during public comment sessions while they develop a policy for public comment moving forward.
We believe there is a solution that ensures there is time and space for the community to connect with their elected representatives and addresses long working hours for DPS staff. This feedback will be shared with DPS Board representatives so that YOUR voice and opinion can help them create an inclusive and equitable policy for public comment sessions.
