PLAN TO SLOW PACE OF DENVER SCHOOL SHUTDOWNS

A proposal by the superintendent of Denver's public schools could slow the pace of school closures and consolidations to a minimum of every three years.

"This period includes two consecutive years to implement the approved recommendation and one year for review," a draft says.

"However, a new recommendation may be presented if there is a significant change in enrollment or funding, or an unforeseen emergency." 

The plan is subject to review by the city school board.
