AMPE Meeting the Moment: The Fight for Our Public Schools
2025-08-20 17:30 - 19:30
The Fight for Our Public Schools
A Critical Conversation at a Critical Time
Today Colorado’s public schools face unprecedented challenges from federal funding cuts to privatization to economic uncertainty. Because of TABOR (and unlike other states), Colorado can not respond in a meaningful way to those challenges without a vote of the people.
Great Education Colorado’s Ambassadors for Public Education invite you for a discussion with special guests including House Assistant Majority Leader Jennifer Bacon and Colorado Superintendent of the Year Deirdre Pilch (Greeley-Evans District 6) about how school districts, legislators, advocates, and Great Ed are meeting the moment.
