What’s churning:
The State Council for Educator Effectiveness starts the second day of a three-day retreat at 9 a.m. The group is expected to start shaping up the recommendations it will make to the State Board of Education next spring. The sessions will be in the Ruffatto Hall Community Board Room at the University of Denver’s Morgridge College of Education.
Except for the poor souls slogging away at the Joint Budget Committee, today is a quiet getaway day at the legislature, as is always the case on the first Friday of a new session.
