  • Annual Report 2016 Free and Equal Access for All
    ANNUAL REPORT 2016 FREE AND EQUAL ACCESS FOR ALL. MESSAGE FROM OUR LEADERSHIP In 2016, customers made four million in-person visits and 13 million online visits to the Denver Public Library, checking out some nine million items. Here are a few more numbers that make our hearts sing: Abby Goodman attended 144 programs at 18 different library locations, and even a few beyond our buildings. We love it that Abby is a super user. Like clockwork, Sandra LaBella spent two hours every Thursday for three months in our SM Energy ideaLAB at the Central Library, learning how to build a website for her physical therapy practice. She credits library staff with teaching her the skills she needed to succeed. Finally, through our Career Online High School program, at age 35, Cory Wicks earned one precious document: a diploma. The father of two admits he made mistakes early in life, but was determined to earn his degree. While juggling two jobs and raising his kids, finding time to study was a challenge. But he persevered. And on a warm September evening, Cory proudly accepted his diploma along with six other graduates in a packed house at the Rodolfo “Corky” Gonzales Branch Library. The heavy equipment operator hopes to continue his education, perhaps one day becoming a supervisor. It’s a privilege to be part of our customers’ lives and we beam over their successes. In 2016, we also reaffirmed our role in the community as a place for free and equal access, serving and welcoming people from all walks of life.

  • Portfolio School Districts Project
    Portfolio School Districts Project Better Schools Through Better Politics: The Human Side of Portfolio School District Reform A Working Paper Series by Sam Sperry, with Kirsten Vital and Cristina Sepe Introduction by Paul Hill March 2012 425 Pontius, Suite 410 Seattle, Washington 98109 T: 206.685.2214 F: 206.221.7402 www.crpe.org THE PORTFOLIO SCHOOL DISTRICTS PROJECT Portfolio management is an emerging strategy in public education, one in which school districts manage a portfolio of diverse schools that are provided in many ways—including through traditional district operation, charter operators, and nonprofit organizations—and hold all schools accountable for performance. In 2009, the Center on Reinventing Public Education (CRPE) launched the Portfolio School Districts Project to help state and local leaders understand practical issues related to the design and implementation of the portfolio school district strategy, and to support portfolio school districts in learning from one another. A Different Vision of the School District Traditional School Districts Portfolio School Districts Schools as permanent investments Schools as contingent on performance “One best system” of schooling Differentiated system of schools Government as sole provider Diverse groups provide schools Analysis of Portfolio District Practices To understand how these broad ideas play out in practice, CRPE is studying an array of districts (Chicago, Denver, Hartford, New Orleans, New York City, and Washington, D.C.) that are implementing the portfolio strategy. The on-going analysis looks at what these districts are doing on important fronts, including how they attract and retain talent, support school improvement, manage accountability, and re-balance their portfolios by opening and closing schools when needed.

In 2010, more than 1.8 million Colorado citizens turned out to cast a vote for their government leadership. These votes helped elect a U.S. Senator and seven U.S. Representatives. At the state level, voters elected a governor, lieutenant governor, secretary of state, state treasurer, attorney general, three state board of education members, three CU regents, 19 state senators, 65 state representatives, a district attorney and other county and local elected leaders. Voters also retained numerous judges and weighed in on nine questions regarding changes to state law. I encourage Colorado citizens to be actively involved in the democratic process—our democratic system of government is only as strong as the participation of its citizens.

INTRODUCTION Until July 1, 2009, all Colorado citizens faced fines and jail time for capturing precipitation on their residential property.2 In April 2009, however, Colorado's governor signed into law two statutes that incrementally deviated from the State's traditional appropriation system of water rights by permitting a certain class of residential landowners to use precipitation that collects on their rooftops. Colorado's unique water laws and the statute's passage garnered plenty of national attention in two of the country's largest newspapers and on one of the nation's most listened to radio programs.4 These new laws now permit a certain class of Colorado residential landowners to capture precipitation on their property before it collects into the State's groundwater or surface water supply by giving less deference to the water rights doctrine of prior appropriation.
