Where art, engineering and conversation intersect

BY SARA HERTWIG AND CORINNE WESTEMAN

Engineers are supposed to build things that better their community — anything from roads and bridges to computer chips and medical equipment. But what happens if the things they build hurt people rather than help them, and destroy communities rather than improve them?

at’s the question two Colorado School of Mines student groups posed to their fellow Orediggers and others Jan. 2829.

It is based on the West Bank wall between Israel and Palestine, mural organizers explained.

In a Jan. 28 press release, the groups said their goal was threefold:

• Help their peers understand the context of the current war in Palestine;

• Initiate conversations about their ethical responsibilities as engineers and scientists; and

tubing season

BY CORINNE WESTEMAN

While the Clear Creek corridor saw several major changes ahead of the 2024 tubing season, 2025 should be a little quieter.

Deputy City Manager Carly Lorentz said this summer will be one to continue many of the management strategies Golden started last summer or in previous years. City sta members aren’t recommending any major changes before or during the 2025 tubing season, she said.

However, Lorentz pointed out that the City Council is still considering a few summer-related issues, such as whether to prohibit tube rentals and sales during Buffalo Bill Days, as it did in 2024. Lorentz expected those items to be addressed at the March 4 City Council meeting, along with some suggestions locals made at a recent community meeting.

For summer 2025, Lorentz said Golden’s plans include continuing to:

• Improve signage;

• Host weekly cleanups along the creek;

• Add bilingual resources;

• Maintain or increase enforcement along the creek; and

• Urge Mines to no longer invest in and partner with companies that are “complicit in crimes against humanity.”

UPDATE

• Collect data on tubing trends. e City of Golden shared these plans and asked for locals’ feedback on last year’s changes at the Jan. 16 community meeting.

Several locals who attended acknowledged the complicated balancing act Golden must do every summer. Whether they’re locals or visitors, whether they’re walking, biking, tubing or boating, everyone wants to have a good time accessing Clear Creek, the locals described.

“I think the city has an impossible task ahead of themselves,” local kayaker Nik White said. “I think there’s so much demand for tube and tube rentals and tube oating that it’s a thankless and impossible task.”

Dana Rudd, who lives along 10th Street, felt similarly but added how there’s “always room for improvement.”

Suggested changes

While city sta didn’t have any recommended changes before the 2025 season, many meeting attendees did.

A major one was removing the gates and fences the city installed last year, which closed o several creek access points during peak times.

According to city o cials, the goal was to better control where people were getting in and out of the creek for datacollection and environmental impact purposes.

However, locals said it made Clear Creek inaccessible and just created more crowds. One person wrote: “ e fences make … people have to walk all over each other. We feel like cattle.”

Locals had other suggestions for 2025 or future seasons, including:

• More parking for bicycles and ebikes;

• A restroom and hosting a lost & found bin at Vanover Park;

• Kayak-only days, or mornings;

• Limiting or restricting tube rentals during kayaking events; and

• Allowing whitewater standup paddleboards during red- ag conditions.

Another point of concern was trash, with Rudd and a few others commenting that the city should install more and/or

bigger trash cans along the creek.

Rudd, who runs, tubes and swims along Clear Creek, described how often she saw people leaving behind trash. Sometimes people left their trash near the cans because the trash didn’t t inside, she said.

“ e trash is the thing that destroys the river,” Rudd continued. “ … ( e current trash cans) can’t keep up with the amount of impact and trash that people are leaving.”

us, she said bigger and/or more trash cans “has to happen.”

Rudd and others were happy with the increased enforcement over the last year.

According to Golden, sta members issued 474 citations last summer, which is a 315% increase over 2023. Additionally, 78% of last summer’s citations were for alcohol violations.

Clear Creek Commons’ Janet Johnson said she couldn’t believe how many tickets the city gave out last summer. She walks along the creek frequently and volunteers at the Golden History Museum.

“From what I see, it runs pretty smoothly,” Johnson said, adding how the tubers seem to be an economic boon to the local merchants.

When she’s volunteering at the museum, Johnson frequently elds questions from visitors about tubing. She said the most common one is: “Where do you get those tubes?”

She added: “Mostly, (the visitors) like what they see.”

Rudd emphasized how everyone — visitors and locals — must treat Clear Creek with respect by following all the city rules and regulations, cleaning up after themselves and generally leaving the corridor like they found it.

“It’s beautiful,” she said. “ … If you abuse it, we will literally lose it.”

Have boat, will travel

Another point of concern at the Jan. 16 community meeting and during public comment at the Jan. 14 City Council meeting was kayakers.

With so many tubers frequenting Clear Creek, it becomes di cult for kayakers to enjoy the space too.

Nik White, who owns Whitewater Workshop, said he can’t teach kayaking classes or whitewater rescue classes on Clear Creek after Memorial Day.

He clari ed that, while advanced kay-

akers can boat on Clear Creek during yellow- and red- ag conditions, greenag conditions are the best time for beginning kayakers. However, that means they’re “spending their entire day avoiding tubes,” he said.

Some locals have asked the city to institute kayak-only days or hours, but Lorentz said the city can’t really do that.

e best it could do is restrict tube sales and/or rentals on a speci c day, but people could still bring their own tubes, she explained.

“It’s not as simple as ‘no one except for kayakers,’” Lorentz continued.

White anticipated more kayakers than usual in Golden’s section of Clear Creek this year, which could lead to more kayak-tuber con icts.

A construction project above Clear Creek Canyon’s Tunnel 1 has closed a popular takeout spot for a whitewater section known as Lower Clear Creek, White said. us, he expected more boaters would visit Golden.

White, who’s also a Colorado Whitewater Association board member, said he and his colleagues are doing their best to prepare everyone for the summer. He hoped the city would work with the kayakers on more convenient parking spaces, special events and other considerations.

“Because of all the changes happening upstream and the additional tra c coming down here, it’ll be a learning year for both the boaters and the city to see what happens,” he continued.

The City of Golden outlines some of its plans for the central section of 10th Street. This includes turning the current City Hall into dedicated green space and updating the south Clear Creek trail.

Tubers walk over the Billy Drew Bridge during the afternoon on July 1. The City of Golden made several changes along the Clear Creek corridor before and during the 2024 tubing season, with locals appreciating some changes while criticizing others.

Real Estate

Commission Says Clients, Not Their Brokers, Should Choose Settlement Service Providers

The Colorado Real Estate Commission (CREC), whose mandate is to protect consumers, has made it clear in Position Statement #18 that we brokers should not dictate the settlement service providers utilized by buyers and sellers. Instead, the client should make that decision, influenced perhaps but not dictated by their real estate broker. Here’s the verbiage from that position statement: “When assisting a Consumer in finding a settlement service provider, a Broker must ensure the Consumer plays an active role in the process and is ultimately responsible for making the selection.”

A “settlement service provider” is defined as any provider of a service required in the execution of a real estate transaction: lenders, title companies, inspectors, surveyors, appraisers, home warranty providers, and lawyers. Another position statement (#3) echoes a federal law that prohibits us and any of those other service providers from receiving a kickback or “something of value” (such as dinners or even charitable gifts) in return for referring our client to them.

common practice for the buyer to assign that responsibility to the seller and to specify the title company named in the MLS listing — and for the buyer to use the same title company to purchase the “piggyback” title policy for the buyer’s lender. To choose another title company for the lender’s policy would always be more expensive and serve no purpose. Based on the CREC’s position statement, it would seem that we should tell each buyer that they may choose to hire a different title company for the lender’s policy than the one being used by the seller, but doing so would add hundreds of dollars to the cost of closing.

The exception to that is when the buyer is planning to flip the property (with or without making improvements) to another buyer and has an agreement with their preferred title company to “hold open” the policy for the resale, thereby saving the cost of a new title search and title policy.

There is a website to which we refer clients who want to do their own comparison shopping for title companies. I’ve promoted it in the past: www.CompareTitleCompanies.com

There’s another aspect of this matter which I have written about before which deserves repeating, and that’s the topic of “affiliated business arrangements” (ABAs). A service provider is considered an ABA when the brokerage has an ownership or profit-sharing interest in the provider. Virtually all the big brokerages and some smaller ones have their own mortgage companies, title companies and other service providers which bring additional revenue to the brokerage. Their ABAs must be disclosed to their clients, so they are aware that the use of one of the services (which the broker will invariably recommend) benefits the brokerage financially.

Golden Real Estate does not have any affiliated business arrangements, because I feel that having such relationships introduces an

ethical question of whether we are, as required by law and by the Realtor Code of Ethics always to put the client’s interests ahead of our own.

This ethical issue is amplified when the managing broker takes note (as he surely does) of which agents are “playing the company” game by “capturing” clients for their mortgage company and their title company.

Before I launched Golden Real Estate in July 2007, I was with two large brokerages which had those captive service providers, and it was clear to me that the managing broker was favoring associates with high “capture rates” for their affiliated businesses.

That is not only unethical, it constitutes “something of value” given to the associate in return for a service provider referral.

BTW, you’ll notice that we list Wendy Renee below as our “in-house loan officer.” She rents desk space in our storefront, but we earn nothing from the business she does.

In Memoriam: Our Free Moving Truck Has Bit the Dust

That law is the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act of 1974 (RESPA). It was written to penalize persons or entities that are paid a fee (i.e., a kickback) for referring a client to a settlement service provider when the transaction includes a federally backed loan. As a practical matter, it has been assumed to apply to all real estate transactions.

RESPA’s primary focus is on lenders, to prohibit them from paying an “unearned” fee to a real estate broker, for example, in return for referring buyers to them. An “unearned” fee is one paid for doing nothing more than making the referral. If the person performs actual work, such as an attorney assisting on the transaction, that’s not a kickback, because it was earned

In this week’s column, I want to focus on the selection of title companies, since they, unlike those other service providers, are involved in virtually every real estate transaction.

Although the contract to buy and sell real estate allows the buyer to specify whether the seller or the buyer is to select the title company and pay for the owner’s title policy, it is a

I was reminded of this requirement that the seller actively participate in the selection of the title company when I was brought to task for my January 16th column in which I referred to First Integrity Title as our “preferred title company” because of a new service that they offer regarding HOA documents. Indeed, a complaint was filed against me by another service provider for violating the rule that the client, not the broker, must select the title company.

That complaint was dismissed by the Real Estate Commission’s investigator, but it inspired me to remind our readers — which includes real estate brokers and other service providers as well as prospective buyers and sellers — that this rule exists and that we should be diligent about obeying it. It’s not that hard to comply.

Henceforth, we will make it a practice to provide each client with a handout which, in addition to listing two or more lenders, inspectors, title companies and other settlement service providers, states in bold type (as suggested in Position Statement #18), that “the decision to hire a specific settlement service provider is completely at the Consumer’s discretion, and Consumers are not limited to service providers listed by the Broker.”

Back in 2004, I took delivery of our first box truck. After putting 150,000 miles on it, we bought a second truck and put another 100,000 miles on it. For a while, we actually had two trucks, and they got a lot of use, mostly by non-profits like BGoldN, the International Rescue Committee, Golden Chamber of Commerce, and Family Promise of Greater Denver. At right and below are pictures of volunteers from the Golden Relief Group who used the truck to transport donated furniture and furnishings for resettled refugees from Syria, Ukraine and elsewhere.

At right is our final truck, a 2012 Ford E350, which we purchased after it had logged 120,000 miles for Penske. The engine needs to be replaced at a cost of over $10,000, and it also needs a brake job.

We really enjoyed having a free moving truck to offer buyers and sellers, but you will notice in the box at left that now we only

provide free moving boxes and packing materials — still a nice benefit. We have decided not to replace the truck but to rent U-Haul trucks when the need arises. We are sorry that so many worthy nonprofits are losing access to a free box truck, but I’m hopeful they’ll find another company which can lend them one. Many self-storage companies have free box trucks for clients to use. Maybe one of them will do what we did.

MURAL

e student groups cited information from the U.N. O ce for the Coordination of Humanitarian A airs and the Watson Institute for International & Public Affairs that described Palestine’s grim situation. ousands are dead; hundreds of thousands are displaced; thousands of structures have destroyed, including hospitals; and U.S.-manufactured bombs are involved.

Mayes, the project’s uno cial art director, described how the organizers “wanted to depict scenes of what’s actually happening in Gaza — what the situation’s like.”

Mayes was also happy to use his skills

to build something and make art out of it.

Ty Dendy, a Mines student who helped with the project, said the most exciting part for him has been how much gratitude he’s heard from people. For every one person who started a bad-faith discussion, he said, ve or six people voiced their support.

Ultimately, Bennett told the Golden City Council Jan. 28 that he was proud of how the mural came out. He said even people who disagreed with the groups’ stance still complimented the artwork.

“I can tell you that for the past 16 months, I’ve experienced more pain than ever before in my entire life,” Bennett said at the Jan. 28 City Council meeting. “And I can also tell you that I’ve felt more hope than ever before. Because, right now, people are interested in learning about us, about Palestine more than ever before, at least during my lifetime.”

Je co Schools superintendent seeking raise amid potential state funding cuts

BY SUZIE GLASSMAN SGLASSMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Superintendent Tracy Dorland is under scrutiny for requesting that the Jefferson County School Board renegotiate her contract years before its 2027 expiration.

Dorland’s current salary for the 202425 school year is $300,770. Her total compensation package also includes healthcare bene ts, retirement contributions, a monthly car allowance and technology support that includes a laptop, phone and watch, further adding to the overall value of her contract.

Late last year, the Je erson County Education Association organized a letter-writing campaign to the board, raising questions about the negotiations’ timing, transparency and prioritization, especially as the district faces potential funding cuts from the state.

Colorado is currently contending with a projected budget shortfall of $750 million, driven by rising Medicaid costs, the conclusion of federal COVID-19 relief funds and restrictions imposed by the Taxpayer Bill of Rights, according to reporting by the Colorado Sun.

To address this gap, Gov. Jared Polis has proposed a state budget that, while preserving some education funding, introduces signi cant changes to the school nance formula.

Je co Public Schools, Colorado’s second-largest district, already operates within tight budgetary limits. Paula Reed,

a member of the Je co School Board, has repeatedly highlighted the district’s challenges.

“Colorado funds its schools $2,000 to $3,000 less per student than the national average,” Reed said while speaking to Je co Educational Support Professionals Association leaders during a December board meeting. “Eighty-seven percent of the district’s budget is already allocated to salaries and compensation.”

JCEA president Brooke Williams explained that these nancial realities make it di cult for some Je co educators to understand why Dorland’s contract is a matter of concern, especially when the district is considering asking voters to approve a mill levy override and a bond in 2026.

Williams fears this will create a perception issue, as the superintendent’s request for a raise could undermine community trust and complicate e orts to secure taxpayer support for critical funding measures.

“I’m a big believer that people deserve to make a living wage in the Je co area and be able to work in the places they live,” she said. “But many of our teachers can’t a ord that, so I feel like this is a giant PR (public relations) nightmare that will erode trust in our community.

“I’m not saying that Tracy (Dorland) isn’t working hard, but we’re all working hard,” Williams continued. “I think choosing not to ask for a raise now, as a leader, would allow her to gain her employees’ and the community’s respect.”

CALL FOR NOMINATIONS

The Rotary Club of Golden is conducting the 20th annual Ethics in Business Awards program in 2025. Each year we seek nominations from the public of those organizations in our community, both for-profit and not-for-profit, that demonstrate the highest standards of ethical business practice, integrity, and civic and social responsibility.

All nominations received by Feb. 28, 2025 will be evaluated by students in the Ethics class at the Colorado School of Mines. They will choose the winners, who, along with all nominees, will be recognized and honored at an Awards luncheon on May 16, 2025 at the Denver Marriott West hotel.

To make a nomination, go to https://ethics.goldenrotary.org/ nomination-form/ This Ethics in Business Awards website also gives more details on the Ethics awards program, which has been an important and popular event since its founding in 2006.

Je co Public Schools Associate Chief of Communications and Strategic Partnerships Kimberly Mahugh stressed that Dorland and the board began contract discussions in August 2024, and the board has never scheduled a date to vote on the outcome.

“While compensation is a standard and appropriate consideration in any contract negotiation, Superintendent Dorland’s primary motivation is to ensure leadership stability within Je co Public Schools,” Mahugh said.

“As a lifelong resident and parent within the district, she is deeply committed to serving her home community. e initiatives she is spearheading to improve student outcomes require a longterm strategic approach. e community needs and deserves the continuity and stability that an extended contract term would provide,” Mahugh continued.

Criticism of the superintendent’s compensation

Superintendent Dorland’s 2024-2025 salary of $300,770, which represents a 15% increase from her starting salary, has been a focal point of criticism, according to JCEA. e group states that her total compensation package includes bene ts not available to other district employees, such as the ability to choose any health insurance plan with 100% coverage for herself and her family, along with a generous retirement and auto allowance.

JCEA has also pointed out stark disparities between Dorland’s compensation

and the nancial struggles of educators.

According to the union, 40% of Je co educators live paycheck to paycheck, and many struggle with rising housing and living costs in Je erson County.

According to the Colorado Department of Education, the average Je co teacher made $71,972 for the 2022-23 school year.

e union is also raising concerns about the timing and prioritization of the negotiations, as funding for the upcoming year remains uncertain, and union contract negotiations are set to take place in the spring.

“Will this same generosity be extended to us when we go to the bargaining table this spring?” the JCEA wrote to members.

9 key takeaways from Je co Public Schools’ financial audit

Audit reveals need for better financial oversight

BY SUZIE GLASSMAN SGLASSMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Earlier this month, Je co Public Schools pulled back the curtain on its 2024 nances, revealing a complex picture of progress and pitfalls in its latest Annual Comprehensive Financial Report. From pension liabilities to declining enrollment, the report, paired with an independent audit, spotlighted the district’s biggest challenges and opportunities for growth.

Here are nine key takeaways from the report and audit ndings:

1. Declining enrollment pressures revenue

enrollment average, but this bu er is temporary and will end sooner than the auditors anticipated.  e state’s new school funding formula reduced the average allowance to four years last year. Gov. Jared Polis has proposed dropping it altogether, which would impact declining districts like Jeffco.

Chalkbeat recently reported that many district leaders, including Je co’s school nance o cer, attended a legislative hearing to oppose the proposed measure.

BEST OF THE BEST VOTING STARTS MARCH 1!

Since 2020, Je co’s enrollment has decreased by 7,874 students, representing a nearly 10% decline. According to the report, this trend, driven by high housing costs and lower birth rates, has created substantial funding challenges, as state revenue is tied to student numbers.

Auditors noted that the state has mitigated the impact by using a ve-year

DORLAND

Board member Mary Parker, who emphasized that she was only speaking for herself, said she didn’t understand why the union would think any discussions around Dorland’s contract would mean the board was prioritizing her salary over anything else.

“We were not prioritizing her contract,” Parker said. “I don’t understand where anybody got that impression. Her contract ends in 2027, but superintendents are not on a yearly schedule. ere’s no time where you renegotiate or give raises like we have with our unions or with the associations. So it’s not unusual for a superintendent’s contract to be re-evaluated.”

Parker said she’s also surprised by the union’s strategy regarding employee compensation.

“JCEA has gotten very good raises, certainly since I’ve been on the board,” she said. “I made it clear it was a priority for me to adequately attract and retain the best employees we could, and that we needed to increase compensation. Tracy (Dorland) was right alongside the board in advocating for these substantial raises.”

Calls for transparency

Another major point of contention is how the board has used executive sessions to discuss Dorland’s contract. e JCEA and community members have called for more transparency, arguing that taxpayers deserve to know why these discussions are happening now and what changes are being proposed.

In response, board member Mary Parker defended using executive sessions, explaining that they are standard for discussing individual personnel matters. She emphasized that no nal decisions can be made during these closeddoor meetings and that the proposed contract will be published publicly be-

fore any vote.

“To date, the board has held three short executive sessions regarding the Superintendent’s contract: approximately 60 minutes on Nov. 1, less than 40 minutes on Nov. 14, and approximately 60 minutes on Dec. 11,” Parker said in an email response to a JCEA member. “No nal actions were taken at any of those meetings.”

Parker added that the board is seeking legal counsel to ensure the contract aligns with best practices and comparable compensation packages in similar districts.

“Nothing’s been done, but when and if we do get to that point, it will be in public,” Parker said.

Balancing priorities amid financial uncertainty

e controversy comes at a pivotal moment for Je co Public Schools. Declining enrollment, potential state funding cuts and ongoing educator dissatisfaction have created a challenging environment for the district.

e JCEA has argued that the board should focus on addressing systemic issues a ecting students and sta rather than renegotiating the superintendent’s contract. Many educators feel undervalued and overworked, a sentiment exacerbated by the stark contrast between their compensation and bene ts and those of district leadership, the group argues.

Parker, however, emphasized the board’s commitment to fair employee compensation.

“Adequately compensating all Je co sta , from part-time workers all the way up to the Superintendent, has been a high priority for this Board,” she said. e board had planned another executive session to get legal advice regarding Dorland’s contract on Jan. 12 but delayed the session to allow for further discussion and review.

Mahugh said discussions around Dorland’s contract are ongoing.

Golden seeks feedback on Lions Park playground, Vanover Park connection projects

City o cials share tentative plans for 10th Street properties once municipal center is built

BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CWESTEMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

If all goes according to plan, the City of Golden will move into its new municipal center and police headquarters in late 2027 or early 2028.

Once it does, the current City Hall and several city properties along the 10th Street corridor will no longer be needed as is, and will either be modi ed or sold.

City o cials updated residents on the larger Heart of Golden project at a Jan. 21 community meeting, asking for feedback and outlining tentative plans for several city properties.

Residents can comment on GuidingGolden.com through Feb. 5.

e city is hosting a meeting about the municipal center speci cally from 5:30-6:30 p.m. Feb. 12 at the Golden Community Center. It also has scheduled more community meetings on the Heart of Golden project in April and May.

Long-term projects

While many properties will be modi ed, city sta clari ed that the Lions Park ballelds and tennis courts, the Golden History Museum and the Golden Fire Department headquarters will remain as they are. ose properties shouldn’t be impacted by the larger Heart of Golden project.

According to City Manager Scott Vargo and Deputy City Manager Carly Lorentz, once the new municipal center at 311 10th St. is nished, the current City Hall will be torn down and turned into some type of dedicated green space.

e City Hall Annex building at 1000 10th St. will likely be sold.

e planning & public works building at 1445 10th St. will be repurposed, they said. Ideas include city storage or a childcare center/preschool.

Lorentz clari ed that any or all of these decisions would have to be approved by City Council, and that likely won’t happen until after city operations have moved into the new municipal center.

Additionally, Golden is considering redeveloping its parking lot at 310 10th St. is is currently free Clear Creek parking, where tubers and other creek users are directed to park.

Lorentz said redevelopment ideas include housing, but anything the city pursues wouldn’t be until 2027 or later. Parking could be included as part of the redevelopment, with Lorentz adding, “ ere might also be other parking projects near the area that (would) happen at that time or later. So we understand the parking need.”

Near-term projects

While those four properties’ futures won’t be nalized for some time, Lorentz explained that two other park spaces along the Clear Creek corridor will be modi ed in the near future.

Both are set for design this year, with construction slated for next year.

e rst is the Lions Park playground.

Lorentz said the playground was installed in 1996 and is at the end of its life. City ocials are considering moving the playground to another spot in Lions Park. Doing so would improve safety by moving the playground away from 10th Street, Lorentz said. Additionally, the current playground could remain open in the interim while crews install the new one elsewhere in the park.

e second is what Lorentz described as the East Zone Amenity Area, which is the connection between Parfet Park, Vanover Park and the new municipal center. Golden wants to improve the connection between those properties before the municipal center is nished.

Lorentz said Golden already sent out a Request for Design Proposals and should hire

a design team soon. City o cials hope the design team can connect with residents at a meeting this spring, she added.

Things to do for Valentine’s Day in Golden

Well, Feb. 14 is almost here. Yes, that’s Valentine’s Day. I always like to mention that at least a week before it happens to remind some of you that it’s about to occur so you can at least get a card and box of candy or something before you get to work that day and realize that you totally forgot about it and end up looking at the few picked over items left in the grocery store on your way home. You and the other 50 guys there that did the same thing. If you ever had a doubt that your wife or girlfriend might be smarter than you are, take a look and see how many women are standing in that aisle at 5:30 p.m. on Valentine’s Day. And no, they aren’t all over at Home Depot, they were there last week.

It’s also an important day for single people. Actually, Feb.15 is the important day. at’s when it’s safe to start dating again after the gift-giving holiday season. If you start dating someone during that time, then guring out what to give them for Christmas or Valentine’s Day is a nightmare. You like them, but you haven’t been involved that long and you don’t want to give too much so they think you are rushing things or too little so they think you don’t really care about them and…well you get the idea. Trust me, it’s better to wait until those two days are over to start a new ing. at’s a bit of advice from a guy who once started dating the girl he met on New Year’s Eve, which came after the one he met at a Halloween party the year before. Yeah. Neither one of them are my wife. You can see how that worked out.

Of course, Valentine’s Day is famous

for love, hearts and owers, but truthfully, there has been some pretty crazy stu that happened on that day throughout history. e rst one that pops in my mind was that little dispute between Al Capone and Bugs Moran that allegedly came to a head in Chicago on that day in 1929. You probably heard about that one, there have been a few books and movies on the subject. A few more include Teddy Roosevelt’s mother and his wife dying on the same day in 1884, and accidental bombing in 1944, a huge nightclub re in 1981 and if that’s not enough, St. Valentine himself came to a rather grizzly end at the hands of the Roman emperor around 270 CE.

So, you don’t really have to just stick to the typical romantic dinner kind of thing to celebrate the occasion. You could head up Lookout Mountain to the Boettcher Mansion on Wednesday, Feb. 12, which will host a di erent kind of event called “My Spooky Valentine.” It’s your chance to spend a night with the Rocky Mountain Paranormal Research Society. You will hear tales from the actual ghost hunters themselves about real experiences from their investigations including ones at the mansion you will be sitting in.

ASo, whether you’re a skeptic, a believer, or just curious, this is your chance to dive into the supernatural with the pros. It will be happening from 6:30-9 p.m. and admission is free, but you will have to register in advance. You can do that at https://bit.ly/3EaKNJr or go www.je co. us and look for the event calendar. e Boettcher Mansion is a museum owned by Je erson County and located at 900 Colorow Road here in Golden.

If going to the theater is a bit more your style, the Miners Alley Performing Arts Center will be presenting something special for just Valentine’s weekend. On

Friday and Saturday, Feb. 14 and 15 you can catch a performance of “Love Letters.” It’s an intimate and touching play that traces the lifelong relationship between two friends through their written correspondence, revealing the power of words and the deep connection that endures across time. Written by A.R. Gurney, directed by Warren Sherrill, and starring MAPAC’s own Lisa DeCaro and Len Matheo, it’s a poignant exploration of love, missed opportunities and enduring bonds.

Finding resilience after a stumble

short time ago I fell and skinned my knees.

Falling is not particularly unusual for me. Since being diagnosed with MS, I have found my relationship with gravity to be a double-edged sword; I appreciate the fact that this unseen force keeps us from hurtling o into space. But at the same time, gravity can be a pain when I drop item after item and it can be painful when the thing that falls to the ground is not a fork, but me. I fell while walking into a school, and the public nature of that misstep was challenging. As I struggled to get up, three thoughts raced through my mind: “Ouch, my knees hurt,” “I hope my pants didn’t rip,” and “How many people saw me fall?”

While I was not injured beyond a couple of skinned knees in my tumble, it took me time to reach a spot of resilience. Interestingly, as I struggled to recover mentally from the fall, I was embarrassed about the fact that I write so much about resilience but in that moment, could not nd it in myself. I played over and over in my mind the look of the three people who rushed to help me. I perseverated over why I had to fall in that location, why there had been so many people around, and most of all why I

could not shake o my feelings of frustration, embarrassment, and defeat surrounding that moment. Eventually, I found my footing, and soon after reached the conclusion that struggling to nd resilience does not make me a hypocrite; it makes me human.

While they were not easy lessons, here is what I learned from that experience:

• Being resilient is not for the vain. After “ouch,” my initial reactions centered around vanity. oughts of how many people saw me fall and how many people would be able to know that something happened, occupied my brain rst. If we are going to be resilient, we must be OK sometimes looking like we have been in a struggle. ere is immense power in embracing our fallibility, our humanity, our stumbles.

• Part of being resilient is accepting help. As I mentioned, there were three people who ran over to support me, and honestly, without their help, standing up could have been a struggle. All of them

asked me if I was OK, and one of them said to me, “ e nurse’s o ce has Advil. I’m sure that will help you.” Before they left my side, each of the three gave kind sentiments of support. In our struggles, part of what we must do is get beyond our embarrassment about needing help and move to see help as a blessing. Too often feeling like a burden is a personal problem not a reality. We are beings that were born to help each other; we do not wander this earth separately like the polar bears of the Arctic; we live in a community so that we can help each other. is is how we were made, embrace it.

• Striving to overcome our struggle leaves us open to scraping our knees and getting bruised. at is not a bad thing, if we are not striving, we are living too safely. To live, to truly live means to step out into the experience. We can sit at home in our chairs watching TV, reading books, doing puzzles, and be safe from scrapes and bruises. To what end?

• Being resilient is signi cantly easier when we spend time striving to help others. When we struggle because we want to make a di erence, our scrapes have a purpose, our bruises have a reason, and our ability to bounce back grows exponentially. We are not wallowing in the di culty of our struggle when

we are striving to make a di erence.

Most importantly, I learned being resilient does not mean instantaneously shaking o the scrapes and bruises we experience, but it does mean striving to move outside of the mindset that will hold us captive, a prisoner afraid to move forward, afraid to strive.

In the struggles you face, whatever the challenge may be, I sincerely hope that when you stumble and cannot nd your resilience, you will re ect on these lessons and rediscover your strength.

I hope my words inspire you, and that you will share them with those who need encouragement. ank you to everyone who has shared their stories with me so far; I truly enjoy hearing how you nd valuable insights in these columns and use them to uplift those around you. You can reach me at jim.roome@gmail.com.

Douglas, Je erson among the top counties for speeders

OBITUARIES

December 23, 1931 - December 6, 2024

Raymond Delmar Printz, 92, of Arvada, Colorado, passed away peacefully on December 6, 2024. Ray was the beloved husband of Sher for 42 years, a father, step-father, grandfather, step-grandfather, and great-grandfather. He will always be remembered for his kindness, sense of humor, and love for the outdoors.

El Paso county tops list for the speeding citations

BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

e Colorado State Patrol has, once again, pinpointed the state’s ve counties that attracted the most speeding citations in 2024 and two are right here in the Denver-metro area.

Troopers say drivers in El Paso County got the most speeding tickers last year with 2,161. Douglas and Je erson counties are ranked number two and three respectively, with Douglas collecting 862 citations followed by Je erson with 831. Rounding out the top ve is Fremont County with 727 and Mesa County with 684, according to a CSP news release.

El Paso, Douglas and Je erson counties have remained the top ve counties for speeding citations for the past four years, the CSP states. is is the third consecutive time in four years that Fre-

mont County has entered the top ve and this is the rst time in four years for Mesa County.

e top ve roadways in 2024 for speeding charges by highest speeding intervals issued by the CSP were:

I-70, I-25 followed by state highways 50, 24 and 285. e top four roadways have held their respective top positions for six consecutive years, the CSP states. Highway 285 broke into the top ve in 2022 and has held that spot for the last two years.

Col. Matthew Packard, chief of the CSP, said drivers in 2025 need to lighten up on the accelerator and be more aware of their speeding habits in the new year.

“ e temptation to speed may be all around you, but you won’t get out of a ticket if you violate the law and get pulled over, “ Packard said in a press release.  “Our goal isn’t to go out and ticket everyone; we want drivers to do the right thing and drive like a trooper is a passenger in their vehicle. Citations are meant to correct poor driving choices, and you are literally in the driver’s seat to determine the likelihood of a tra c stop.”

Showtimes are at 7:30 p.m. on both days and you can get tickets by going to www.minersalley.com. e Miners Alley Performing Arts Center is located at 1100 Miners Alley in Golden. Now, those of you familiar with Miners Alley’s old location, upstairs in the old Foss Building, will be happy to know that that space is currently being lled with a new, fun performance venue called Gnarly’s. It’s run by the folks that also have Gnarly’s Toy Box in Lakewood and it’s a place designed to showcase things like “Sideshow freaks, jugglers,

comedians, ventriloquists, magicians.” So, hosting the Love and Laughter Comedy Show ts right in with their pro le. at’s also happening on Friday, Feb. 14 at 7:30 p.m. and will be featuring Headliner Austin Black as well as Phillip Cano, Marae, Ali Kareem, Mo Vida and Bear Love Comedy.

PRESERVING THE MAGIC

BY RYLEE DUNN

Over 50 years since Pong burst onto the gaming scene and 30 years since the Sony PlayStation changed the trajectory of the eld, small independent arcades featuring scores of vintage games continue to thrive throughout the Denver metro area.

In many cases, unassuming exteriors give way to dimly lit interiors with memorabilia-adorned walls, locally sourced libations, and, of course, the ashing lights, exclamative sound e ects and controller clatter of the arcade’s reserve of classic games. ere’s something, perhaps, a bit more impersonal when the venue gets scaled up in a corporate chain setting.

To its credit, many Denver-area locales have managed to preserve the magic of these establishments.

Jason Ungate, owner of e Tabletop Tap in Englewood, credits the

thriving local arcade scene with the renaissance of interest in classic games.

“ e Denver-metro area has a handful of very unique arcades which all o er something a little bit di erent,” Ungate said. “( e) 1Up (Arcade Bar) has a thorough lineup of arcade games that invoke the feeling of the ‘80s via their classic game lineup. Akihabara (Arcade and Bar) gives locals the chance to experience a Japanese-themed spot with candy cabs and other games you’d never see in an American arcade.

“We at Tabletop Tap marry board games with video games and console games, a mishmash of multiple nerdy elements,” Ungate continued. “ ese places and more o er unique experiences, both for the generations that may have grown up with them, and the younger generations who are just encountering them for the rst time.”

While Akihabara and 1Up both keep Westminster’s gaming community satiated, the metro area abounds

with unique shops in other locales as well. Up in the foothills, Wild Game Entertainment Experience in Evergreen has everything from bowling to arcade games, while Blizzard Mountain Pinball specializes in the kind of wizardry e Who immortalized in 1969.

Over in Arvada, dueling Olde Town arcade establishments Secret Level and Super Zoom Bang Bang cater to di erent demographics; the former includes a bar and is generally open a couple of hours later than its counterpart, which primarily caters to younger kids and doubles as a toy story.

Holly Nikolich owns the Colorado Pinball Pub in Littleton (with another location in Monument) and opened the shop with her husband as an outgrowth of sorts of their annual pinball festival, the Rocky Mountain Pinball Showdown and Gameroom Expo, which is entering its 21st year this year.

rado Pinball Pub as a year-long home for the folks who enjoy our annual pinball festival.

“ e once-a-year festival brings together the pinball and gaming community from across Colorado, neighboring states, and beyond,” Nikolich continued.

A longtime love of games seems to be a common thread with shopkeepers.

Ungate said he and his wife, Kristin, had been collecting classic games like Joust, Battlezone and Frogger, and eventually set out to combine their love of classic games with their love of board games in what would become Tabletop Tap.

ARCADES

“We’re long-timers in the pinball and gaming world and are proud to bring the arcade and whiskey community together with the Colorado Pinball Pubs,” Nikolich said. “My husband and I opened Colo-

“We wanted to create a place that was clean and welcoming, but also full of nostalgia for the ‘80s and the ‘90s,” Ungate said. “We o er over 250 board games, a small but rotating collection of arcade games.”

Ungate also said that he, like many other arcade owners, seeks to foster community at the arcade, even going so far as to host community nights such as a monthly Mario Kart tournament, a “nerdy book club,” and a video game book club.

he says caters to both gaming veterans and young people looking for community.

Velasquez also said that the advent of arcade chains — such as Round One in Littleton, Immersive Gamebox in Den-

ver and Main Event in Highlands Ranch, ornton, Colorado Springs and Windsor — has allowed corporations to gain a foothold in the industry, though he posits that these establishments are more focused on alternative revenue streams

“(Arcade) chains are more focused on making money in other ways, like through drinks and food sales,” Velasquez said. “I think local shops put more of an emphasis on the games and keeping up the games over time.”

Nevertheless, the independent arcade scene in Denver seems to be thriving, and hopefully won’t be ceding way to its corporate competition anytime soon.

National School Choice Week highlights progress and inequities in Denver metro area schools

BY SUZIE GLASSMAN SGLASSMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Colorado has long been a pioneer in school choice, o ering families various educational options, including public, charter, private and magnet schools, as well as open enrollment across district boundaries since 1994.

rental e cacy,” can lead to a system in which the “rich get richer” and the “poor get poorer.”

“In a fair system, we wouldn’t want to allocate educational opportunities to kids based on parents’ education, wealth or ability to work the system,” he said.

School choice racial diversity across Denverarea districts

According to the Reason Foundation, data from the Colorado Department of Education showed that more than 199,000 students, 28% of those enrolled in traditional public schools statewide, used open enrollment during the 202324 school year.

While National School Choice Week, which was celebrated this year from Jan. 26 – Feb. 1, showcased these opportunities, it also raised questions among some policy advocates about the equity of access to these options.

Director of the National Education Policy Center Kevin Welner, explained that while school choice was initially designed to decouple educational opportunities from residential zip codes, meaning that where you lived no longer had to de ne the quality of your education, that doesn’t always play out in practice.

“Unconstrained school choice programs… often add a layer of strati cation on top of the existing residential stratication,” Welner said. “Parents with more social capital or exible resources are better positioned to research options, meet application deadlines and provide transportation, giving their children a signi cant advantage.”

Student enrollment in Denver Public Schools and Adams 12 Five Star Schools re ects their communities’ racial and cultural diversity. DPS reports that 74% of its students are from communities of color, and Adams 12 shows a similar trend, with more than 70% identifying as Hispanic, Black, Asian or multiracial.

In contrast, Je erson and Douglas County public schools are far less diverse. In Jefferson County, students of color make up just 40% of the population, while in Douglas County, the gure drops to 25%.  ese disparities grow even larger in private schools, where white students account for more than 75% of enrollment in both districts, leaving Hispanic, Black and Asian students signi cantly underrepresented.

Charter schools, intended to be a more accessible alternative to private schools, show mixed results. In Je erson County, some charter schools re ect the diversity of public schools, but in Douglas County, many charter schools have predominantly white student populations, resembling private schools more than the communities they serve.

One last dive…

Mines swim teams celebrate 12 departing seniors, prepare for postseason

BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CWESTEMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Even though it was single-digit temperatures outside, the Orediggers stayed red-hot in the water over the three-day weekend, putting up strong times against NCAA Division I opponents.

e Colorado School of Mines swim teams hosted Wyoming Jan. 20 for the Orediggers’ nal home meet of the 2024-25 season. While both Mines teams lost to their Wyoming counterparts, the day had several individual highlights and partially served as the teams’ Senior Day.

e meet was initially scheduled for Jan. 18 but was rescheduled due to inclement weather. However, because the 12 departing seniors’ families had traveled in for the occasion, the teams hosted their Senior Day ceremony and a special intrasquad exhibition on Jan. 18 anyway.

Senior Maggie Wells said there were pros and cons to this modi ed format, describing how the seniors’ parents were able to join them on deck for photos. Plus, without another team there, it was a quieter and more intimate environment where the teams “let everyone have their moment,” she explained.

“Just to look back on and re ect on all the memories we’ve been able to do as a senior class,” she said. “ … It was a fun way to get to celebrate, but I de nitely still appreciate the traditional dual-meet format.”

e women’s team was scheduled to close out its regular season Jan. 24 at Colorado State, which Wells anticipated would be a fun “girls’ trip.”

Meanwhile, graduate student Jaron O’Grady said the men’s team was tapering ahead of the Feb. 1115 RMAC Championships in Grand Junction.

O’Grady and Wells both thought the Jan. 20 meet went well, despite the teams’ losses. e Orediggers had good energy, fast times and a few athletes return after injury.

Both the Jan. 18 Senior Day celebration and the Jan. 20 meet were bittersweet moments for O’Grady, as he said he’s been re ecting after every meet this season, realizing it’s his last collegiate meet at any given venue. He said he “got choked up” at both the Senior Day ceremony and after the dual against Wyoming.

“It was a great last home meet,” he continued.

‘The time left on the clock’

O’Grady and Wells, both of whom are graduating this spring, re ected on their nal seasons at Mines.

O’Grady, an Englewood native and computer science student, is looking for jobs and continuing to work on a start-up he and former Mines football player Jack Walters started. e start-up builds assistive technology for people who are blind or vision-impaired.

Meanwhile, Wells said she has a civil engineering job lined up in her home state of California, working for a marine construction company.

e two seniors were looking forward to the RMAC Championships and then the NCAA Division II Championships March 11-15 in Indianapolis.

O’Grady felt like this year’s team was the fastest he’s seen in his four years swimming at Mines.

“ is is going to be a record-breaking season for the team,” he said.

Wells said she’s never quali ed for nationals. But she’s hoping to make it this time, saying she did her best-ever swimming earlier this year.

SWIMMING

Overall, both the seniors believed the Mines swimming program has improved greatly over the last four years, crediting the coaches and athletic trainers.

O’Grady described how, not only has

the teams’ recruiting improved but so has the coaching. He said the Orediggers have taken more individual swimmers to nationals each year, along with relay teams, and the “coaches are dialing in on each swimmer.”

He and Wells speci cally praised Claire McDaniel, the teams’ head coach, for all her work since joining Mines in fall 2019.

“She immediately made, especially the men’s team, a really important part of Mines Athletics,” O’Grady said. “She’s been getting so much help and resources for the team, connecting us (swimmers) with mentors.”

Wells thanked not only her coaches and trainers, but also her teammates for all they’ve done for her the last four years. She said another one of her goals

this season is simply appreciating her nal few months at Mines by “taking in the memories and not thinking about the time left on the clock.”

She added: “I’m so grateful that I got to spend the last four years being a part of a team as amazing as this one. … I would not have loved Mines as much if it wasn’t for this team and my teammates.”

e report warns that the district’s decit will likely persist without changes to state pension policies.

3. Gaps in internal controls highlighted by audit

Auditors found a signi cant de ciency in Je co’s nancial oversight, particularly in the handling of manual journal entries. ey noted that journal entries are posted without su cient review or documentation, increasing the risk of errors or inconsistencies.

“ e district should install a process to review manual journal entries prior to those entries being posted. Additionally, correcting journal entries should contain appropriate documentation to support the reason for the correcting entry,” auditors stated.

Auditors also recommended exploring a built-in control within the PeopleSoft system to ensure entries are not posted to the general ledger until a separate individual adequately reviews them.

4. Missing approvals in key financial processes

implement formal approval steps for all nancial processes and document these approvals to ensure accountability.

5. Revenue increases o set by enrollment decline

Despite a 3.4% increase in general fund revenue, reaching $925.4 million, declining enrollment tempered nancial gains. e report noted that a 10.4% increase in per-pupil state funding helped bolster revenue, but shrinking student numbers remain a persistent challenge.

“Increased per-pupil funding helped o set revenue losses from declining enrollment, but stabilizing enrollment remains critical to the district’s nancial health,” auditors observed.

6. Capital improvement program nears completion e report notes that Je co’s $834 million capital improvement program is almost complete.

“ e district remains on track to complete its capital improvement program within budget and timeline,” the report highlighted, noting this as a bright spot in an otherwise challenging nancial landscape.

e audit identi ed missing approvals in several essential processes, including year-end closing checklists, bank reconciliations and accounts receivable aging

schedules. ese lapses could lead tonancial mismanagement or overlooked errors.

“Approval was noted to be missing in June 2024 bank reconciliations,” the report stated.

Additionally, auditors found “no indication of approval on accounts receivable aging schedules,” underscoring the need for more rigorous review procedures.

Auditors recommended that Je co

7. Errors in asset calculations require correction

e audit agged signi cant inaccuracies in the district’s calculation of net investment in capital assets, amounting to $8.9 million in errors. is included misclassi cations related to pension certi cates and subscription assets.

“ e district should implement a review and approval process to ensure all components of the calculation are appropriate and supported by the general ledger,” the report advised.

Auditors said these errors had been corrected during the audit process but noted that the issue underscores the need for better nancial oversight.

8. Rising costs in special education e report highlights that growing special education spending has increased by 10.1% year-over-year, placing additional strain on an already tight budget.

“Increased expenditures in special education re ect the district’s commitment to meeting the needs of students, even amidst scal pressures,” the report stated.

9. Significant deficiencies: new and unresolved issues

One of the most concerning ndings in the audit was the repeated identi cation of a signi cant de ciency from the prior year.

“ e issue of journal entry oversight was identi ed in the prior year’s audit but remains unresolved,” the auditors noted. “Failure to address this de ciency increases the risk of nancial inaccuracies and weakens overall accountability.”

Auditors emphasized that signi cant de ciencies, while not as severe as material weaknesses, require urgent correction to prevent potential nancial mismanagement.

e district’s chief nancial o cer, Brenna Copeland, didn’t address why the district hadn’t xed the issue when speaking to the school board but stressed that while it’s tempting to talk about the audit, the annual report is a more important indicator of how the district is doing.

“What I want our public to know is that if you review our nancial statements, you’ll see that the district is in a very healthy nancial situation,” Copeland said. “We have some reserves to deploy as we need them and I think that comes out in the numbers and in the actual data in the annual report.”

LEGAL NOTICE AND PUBLICATION

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Board of County Commissioners of the County of Jefferson, State of Colorado, will hold a public hearing concerning the adoption of the Ordinance titled “the Open Carrying of Firearms” in Hearing Room 1 of the Jefferson County Administration and Courts Building at 9:00 a.m. on February 25, 2025, when and where all parties may appear and be heard.

Further notice is hereby given that said public hearing may, at the discretion of the Board, be continued from time to time without further notice until a decision is announced by the Board. The proposed ordinance is set out in full below:

Ordinance Title: Open Carrying of Firearms

BE IT ORDAINED by the Board of County Commissioners of Jefferson County, Colorado that the Policy 6.2.3 regarding Open Carrying of Firearms is hereby adopted with the following:

The open carrying of firearms is prohibited in designated County Buildings in the County’s Jurisdiction as follows:

A.Definitions

“County Building” means any public building, facility, grounds, or other property or specific area within or on any building, facility, or grounds, or other property owned or leased by Jefferson County for the use of its elected or appointed officials, divisions, agencies, or employees, and also those owned or leased by or for the use of the Treasurer, the District Attorney for the First Judicial District, the Jefferson County Public Library, or other related offices or agencies.

B. Prohibition on the Open Carrying of Firearms in Designated County Buildings within the County’s jurisdiction.

1. Through the adoption of this Ordinance, the Sheriff or his/her designee is given the authority pursuant to C.R.S. § 29-11.7-104 to designate any County Building within the County’s jurisdiction as an area in which the open carrying of firearms is prohibited. Prior to banning the open carrying of firearms in any County Building, the Sheriff shall conduct a vulnerability assessment of the building to determine whether the ban on open carrying of firearms would be appropriate in accordance with criteria established by the Procedure accompanying this Policy.

2. The Sheriff or their designee shall then notify the County Manager of their intent to designate a County Building as an area in which the open carrying of firearms is prohibited. Following a designation by the Sheriff or their designee, the County Manager or their designee will assure that the County Building is so designated in the Procedure accompanying this Policy and will have signs posted at the public entrances to the County Building informing the public that the open carrying of firearms is prohibited in that County Building. In May of each year, the Sheriff or their designee will review with the Board of County Commissioners information regarding the status of designated buildings, whether the designations remain appropriate and/or whether additional building should be designated, and any issues that have arisen under this Policy.

3. This prohibition shall not apply to peace officers in the performance of their duties.

4. The provisions of this Ordinance do not limit the County’s authority to enforce CRS § 18-12-105.3 concerning the prohibition of carrying a firearm in a sensitive space or CRS § 1-13-724 concerning the prohibition of carrying a firearm at a polling location or drop box.

SCHOOL CHOICE

Yet, Dan Schaller, president of the Colorado League of Charter Schools, said that it’s important to “zoom out” and look at the aggregate picture when analyzing the demographics of charter schools rather than just focusing on individual situations.

According to statewide data, charter schools serve a higher percentage of students of color and English language learners than traditional public schools, Schaller said.

He also referred to a new report from the Keystone Policy Center that highlights the strong academic performance of Colorado charter schools, particularly their ability to support students and recover from pandemic-related challenges.

Barriers to access

Even charter schools, which are publicly funded, sometimes create hurdles for families. Welner points to practices such as narrow enrollment windows, inperson registration requirements or the need for extensive application materials, all of which disproportionately disadvantage lower-income families.

“Sometimes it’s sneaky; sometimes it’s just careless,” he says of these barriers. “But it does play out in ways that disadvantage some students and advantage others in a way that’s entirely predictable in terms of who’s advantaged and who’s not.

“For students with disabilities, there are a whole host of additional issues about nding a school that has the resources that the child needs and that is willing to accept the child,” he continued. “If you’re talking about voucher

systems, private schools have enormous discretion on which students to accept, and we see that with other school choice systems as well. Some schools will provide the resources that a child needs to address the child’s disabilities, and some schools will either deliberately or carelessly, simply not have those resources available.”

Transportation is another critical factor. Private and charter schools rarely provide busing, limiting access for families without exible schedules or reliable vehicles.

Schaller acknowledged but challenged the perception that charter schools lack diversity or focus only on select populations.

“Charter schools are, generally speaking, re ective of the communities in which they are founded,” he said, adding that they often intentionally serve underserved populations.

Seeking solutions

Welner suggests that addressing inequities in school choice requires thoughtful system design with equity at its core. Federal magnet school programs, he says, are a successful example, promoting socioeconomic and racial diversity through transportation assistance and weighted lotteries.

Charter networks like DSST Public Schools (formerly known as Denver Schools of Science and Technology) are often highlighted for their success in improving academic performance and graduation rates.

According to DSST’s website, its eight campuses, which serve middle and high school students, are committed to “ensuring that the outcomes of DSST students are high-achieving and do not correlate with any predictable social or cultural factors.”
