What happened

On September 23, 2026 the board approved Resolution #3-2027 supporting Amendment 87 (formerly Initiative 195), which would replace Colorado's flat income tax with graduated rates and send new revenue to child care, health care and education, and Resolution #4-2027 supporting Proposition NN, which would let the state keep revenue otherwise refunded under TABOR and direct at least a 2 percent yearly increase in K-12 funding for ten years. The superintendent estimated Amendment 87 could bring the district about $2 million and noted a board may not campaign but may adopt a resolution of support. Both measures were on the November 3, 2026 ballot; results are not in the collected records.

Why it matters to families

The board took a public position on statewide measures that could change how much money the district receives.

The evidence
