There&#8217;s no question some students are doing very well in Jeffco schools, and that&#8217;s great.
The problem is too many kids aren&#8217;t.  No matter how you might want to deflect that fact by cherry-picking data to “debunk myths” and “lies,” what&#8217;s undeniable is that more than 1,000 students from Jeffco aren&#8217;t graduating, every [...]]]></description>

A robo call today tried to fool you by saying that Republicans support the ladies running for School Board.  Don’t be confused – the Jefferson County Republican Party has endorsed Preston Branaugh and Jim Powers for Jeffco School Board.
While all candidates have members of both parties supporting them, and the party [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[SUBMITTED BY: Edie Bryan, Former Lakewood City Council member
 Ever since I was on City Council years ago, I have regularly attended ward meetings. In 2007 there was a large increase of graffiti in the area near South Sheridan Boulevard.  A number of property owners and citizens complained about this problem at the ward meetings.

		<description><![CDATA[SUBMITTED BY: Dan Rodriguez, Lakewood
The primary function of government is to protect its citizens. Thus public safety is my primary concern for Lakewood city government. In recent years we have seen some movement of gangs into Lakewood from Denver. This has been accompanied by an increase in graffiti. Lakewood has done a great deal of work combating these trends, [...]]]></description>

Great things happen every day in Jeffco public schools because of students, parents and teachers.  Jeffco School Board candidates Preston Branaugh and Jim Powers will work with others to address areas that need to be better.
Approximately three of four Jeffco public students graduate from high school. Lesley Dahlkemper likes to say Jeffco is fifth in [...]]]></description>

Dear Editor:
I recently attended a meeting organized by a developer who is seeking to re-zone the Green Gables Golf Course into a multi-use development.  The proposal is being considered by Jefferson County rather than the City of Lakewood because it is in unincorporated Jeffco.  Although the site is in the heart of Lakewood [...]]]></description>

Isn’t it surprising that on Aug 18, 2011, when the Jefferson County Public School Board was considering how to have fewer students referred to law enforcement, they called the Sheriff’s Office to take care of a citizen attending their meeting?
They had just spent time talking about their code of conduct [...]]]></description>
