Denver principals tell all in survey previously hidden from the public, say district policies put students and staff at risk

CBS Colorado: CBS News Colorado has obtained a report that Denver Public Schools fought for nearly two months to keep from the public. It details extensive interviews with high school principals about their concerns with the safety of students, and how principals really feel about the district’s policies that they say put students at risk. 

DPS released the report following an open records request from CBS News Colorado, something that the district initially denied nearly two months ago, but the district released the report late Friday afternoon just days after CBS News Colorado attorneys spoke with the district regarding reasons why it was public record. 

“We’re happy that it’s been released,” says Moira Coogan, President of the Denver School Leaders Association. “We think that it’s important to let folks know how our leaders are feeling.”
