DENVER — The Denver Public Schools Board of Education voted unanimously on Thursday to close seven schools and cut grades at three schools in an effort to address the negative effects of declining enrollment. While enrollment is up 2% within DPS this year due to an increase in immigrant students, as reported by Chalkbeat Colorado, the district has said it expects to lose 6,000 students – around 8% – by 2028.
School board members were then allowed to share their thoughts on the plan.'I have not taken your comments lightly. This is an incredibly difficult decision. I have been moved by the passion, the dedication, the advocacy for our children, for our schools, for our community,' said board member Michelle Quattlebaum. 'We're looking at a situation that there isn't a right or best answer. I don't take this lightly,' said board member Scott Esserman.
