Superintendent of Jeffco schools, Cindy Stevenson - Elle Brunsdale
The Jefferson County Public School System is the largest in the Colorado, with 155 schools, 12,000 employees, and 84,000 students (about 10% of all students in the state). While Superintendent Cindy Stevenson said that the Jeffco School district was already planning to cut $26 million from the 2011-2012 budget based on its 5 year budget plan, she said that after the governor’s proposal, Jeffco Schools are now facing $10 million more in reductions.
