For parents, few decisions feel more significant than choosing the right school for their children. And thanks to Colorado’s “school choice” law, students can attend any public school (that has space) in the state. This system is both empowering and overwhelming: it brings incredible potential to optimize your student’s educational journey, but only if you can make sense of the vast amount of data, information and opinion that’s available.
Central Park EdNews is committed to helping you better understand your educational options by providing unbiased information and news about local schools. See below for our list of resources.
