Denver Public Schools is looking to ask voters for nearly $1 billion — it's largest ever — in the form of a bond.The planning and advisory committee will present its findings and recommendations to board members during Thursday's board meeting.More than half of the bond money would be used for maintenance projects, several new schools/expansions, safety and technology improvements, and arts and athletics facility upgrades.
DPS Chief of Operations Trena Marsal told Denver7 there's a $1.6 billion need for maintenance over the next five years.Marsal said some of those schools have reached temperatures anywhere from the mid-80s to 90 degrees. “We are a district that embraces equity, and the projects that we've recommended within the bond were evaluated with an equity lens. Whether they're in a building that doesn't have air conditioning -how is that equitable to our buildings that are equipped with air conditioning? We want all of our students to be provided with the necessary components to be able to support their learning,” Marsal said.
