Thousands of educators from across Colorado are gearing up to participate in a significant rally advocating for increased funding for K-12 education. The event, spearheaded by the Colorado Education Association, the state's largest teachers union, aims to draw attention to the pressing need for financial support in public schools.
In light of the rally, more than 100 schools within the Denver Public Schools (DPS) district will be closed on Thursday, allowing teachers to join the movement. While many schools will remain shuttered, some will continue to operate, ensuring that students have access to education during this pivotal moment.
The rally is expected to highlight various issues facing educators, including inadequate resources, low salaries, and the overall impact of funding shortages on student learning. As teachers come together to voice their concerns, the event underscores the crucial role that adequate funding plays in providing quality education for all students across the state.
