    Editor: Tanni L. Anthony, Ph.D. State Consultant on RE:SOLUTIONS Blindness/Low Vision By Tanni L. Anthony Colorado Department of Education Exceptional Student Services Let’s be honest, it has been a rough, tough past year. Brutal for many. We are all 1560 Broadway, Suite 1100 hopeful for an improved year ahead with good health, an eventual return to steady Denver, CO 80202 in-person instruction, travel, real face (and hug) time with our loved ones, etc. We are looking forward to a new year. In tradition, it is time for our classic new year (303) 866-6681 (voice) promises for self, home, and work improvements. For 2021, let’s focus on the word (303) 866-6918 (fax) RESOLUTIONS in memo format—RE: for the word “regarding” and the all important E-mail: [email protected] word for being a proactive problem-seeker and solver—SOLUTIONS. This puts the focus not on our problems or challenges, but what we can do about them in not just a hope / prayer / promise manner, but with concrete actions that get results. Think of it this way. Rather than tell myself, “YOU need to exercise more,” I can reframe “How can I improve my cardio health?” and then look for solutions. All of a sudden ideas emerge: a virtual yoga class before work starts, a regularly scheduled “date walk or bike ride” around the neighborhood hills with my husband, or taking Skipper for a brisk walk when I am at my mom’s house. Bit by bit, moments of exercise can be woven into my life with the side benefit of being with people (and critter) that I love and activities that I enjoy.

  • 2016 ANNUAL REPORT DEAR FRIENDS, a Young Person’S Life and Their Community Drastically Change for the Better When They Receive Their High School Diploma Or GED
    2016 ANNUAL REPORT DEAR FRIENDS, A young person’s life and their community drastically change for the better when they receive their high school diploma or GED. That is why we are relentless in our efforts to reengage students who have left school and those at risk of leaving school in their education. We are solving the dropout crisis in Colorado. Our students face many personal and systemic barriers to their education. In reengaging students with their education, we have to address these barriers. In an ever-changing world, CYC continues to make a commitment to being an inclusive organization. We are working to create a culture and community where each individual is recognized and valued for their unique perspectives and identities. Our students, staff and community at large are only as powerful as the collective whole. What CYC is doing works. We strive to be an evidence-based, data-driven organization. In the 15-16 school year, we served over 1,700 students. The state’s dropout rate decreased from 2.5 to 2.3 percent (10,530 students). In addition, the graduation rates rose from 77.3 to 78.9 percent. We are thrilled to see so many of the districts in which we work experience an increase in graduation rates and a decrease in dropout rates. We also recognize we still have a long way to go to reach all of the students leaving school and not graduating across the state. We have some very exciting plans for the next year so stay tuned! MARY ZANOTTI MATT PADILLA EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR BOARD CHAIR IMPACT 2015-16 STUDENT STORIES REENGAGING STUDENTS JESSE Sometimes all it takes is 1,705 students were served by CYC during the 2015-16 a little extra support and perseverance.
