Denver students shop around to find schools that are the right fit
Students in Denver are increasingly choosing to attend school outside their neighborhood as part of the district's school-choice program, which allows students to attend a school that best meets their individual needs and learning goals. While there are concerns that low-income students don't have the same transportation options to take advantage of school choice, advocates say it has helped schools. "If there is no choice, then every school and every building has to figure out a way to be everything for everyone who lives in their boundaries," one supporter said.
