Final Passage·5/19/26

Colorado SB170 establishes a task force to study and recommend ways to expand access to effective public schools and close opportunity gaps.

Colorado SB170 creates an Access to Opportunity Task Force to study how to expand access to effective public schools and address opportunity gaps. The task force will only conduct a study and prepare a report if the Department of Education receives sufficient gifts, grants, and donations. The task force will consider current means of expanding access, successful schools and districts, barriers to effective schools, and how Colorado can redesign its education system.
