Education can elevate Colorado’s economy
On Monday, Sept. 19, the business community has a real opportunity to make a difference in Colorado education.
On that day, key business and community leaders will come together at the E3 Summit to launch a business-led partnership intended to improve Colorado’s education policies and practices. The summit was designed by a steering committee representing some of Colorado’s most influential companies and is sponsored by The Colorado Trust, the Daniels Fund, the Donnell-Kay Foundation and the Rose Community Foundation.
"E3" stands for Education to Elevate Colorado’s Economy, reflecting the fact that a quality public education system is critical to Colorado’s economic future.
Your eyes may have skimmed over that last part, so let me repeat it: A quality public education system is critical to Colorado’s economic future.
You may have heard that before, but have you ever really thought of all the ways in which education affects the economy?
