While I do not have any kids, elected leaders should listen to those that elected them! I will be voting against the current board in the next election!

Leaders listen and consult. Ideologues ram through their agendas, preferring to do so in the dark.

We moved to Jeffco for many reasons, but one of the most important being the schools. The actions of the schoolboard over the past few years have been disturbing and scary to the point that we now question that decision. Our children are entitled to better.

This school board has its personal agenda and the Jefferson County taxpayer community is not given consideration for being their opinions.

You are not elected "rulers" you are elected leaders. Real leaders partner, collaborate, and truly listen to ALL their stakeholders.

I believe in Public Schools and working with parents versus making autocratic and unreasonable decisions.

Will it affect your children? I gaurantee it already is. How many staff members are leaving your child's school building this year? We are losing 9 of 35. Devastating. These board majority members are destroying our schools - exactly according to plan. What are you going to do about it? Tell everyone you know - and everyone you meet - about how excellent Jeffco is - and why you're concerned about it remaining that way.

Schools are the an integral part of any community, to make decisions without the support and clarity in that community is reckless and suspect!
