"This funding is:

About 1.4% lower than the state average

8.5% less than Cherry Creek

14.5% less than Denver

The same as Jefferson County"

But, Mr. Writer, why not focus on the educational quality we enjoy in Douglas County, as opposed to Denver, Cherry Creek and JeffCo School Districts at less cost. I can virtually guarantee you that a teacher who leaves Douglas County for low pay is NOT going to one of those Districts.

Hi John! I'm one of the authors of this piece. I'd be interested in any data you have on why teachers leave DCSD and where they go next when they leave.
