In an emphatic rebuke to the Denver Public Schools board, the Colorado State Board of Education Thursday ordered the local board to reconsider its decision to delay the opening of DSST Noel High School until 2022.
Finding that the delay was not in the best interests of students, the school district, or the community, the state board urged the DPS board to quickly approve the 2021 opening and to remove requirements that DSST submit improvement plans for three of its other schools before the Noel high school can open.
