DENVER (KDVR) -- The Black Family Advisory Council in Denver Public Schools invited the superintendent and police chief to their meeting Tuesday night, asking questions about the district’s use of school resource officers.The council wants to make sure students of color, especially Black students, are not mistreated by SROs who are currently in schools. The group also wants to have a say in what a safety plan looks like in the future. “I recognize the fact that, in the past, there has been some disparate impact that we have seen,” Denver Police Chief Ron Thomas said. “I think we have learned from that now and we have identified alternatives to citations, alternatives to handling discipline matters within the criminal justice system.” Former principal, secretary accused of embezzling $100,000 from high school When school resource officers were put back in Denver Public Schools after the recent shooting at East High, the Black Family Advisory Council knew it would be asking a lot of...Claims of theft involve local housekeeping service

Not all crises are equal under the Biden Administration.Climate change is top of mind on Capitol Hill, and government funding reflects this.Joe Biden’s budget includes nearly $50 million for the Department of Energy’s Solar Energy Technology Office to assist communities and low-income households in continuing to decrease the cost of installing rooftop solar and solar plus storage on homes across the country.The battle against fentanyl, which claims tens of thousands of lives each year from overdoses, gets $40 million to fight trafficking and disrupt transnational criminal organizations.If the White House has a good reason why a program to help people install solar panels gets a bigger slice of the budget than efforts to combat fentanyl trafficking, the American people would love to hear it.Biden’s taken some heat for not doing enough to fight the scourge of fentanyl, but as Politico reported, he’s taking steps, announcing Tuesday increased sanctions targeting drug ...Michelle Williams continues Reichardt collab with ‘Showing Up’

Michelle Williams and Kelly Reichardt have, just like Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese, a thing going.“Showing up,” which arrives in Boston theaters Friday, is their fourth collaboration in 15 years, following “Wendy and Lucy” (2008), “Meek’s Cutoff” (2010) and “Certain Women” (2016).“Kelly’s made a few films without me,” Williams, 42, said in a Zoom interview, but she likes their continuity. “It makes my life feel long when I look back and see us kind of growing-up together.“It makes my life feel strong and supple and able to change. I like that we can grow together as friends and as collaborators. It’s the thing I’m most connected to and most proud of in my 30 years of practicing acting.“Because,” she added, “so much of your life is about geography, the people that you see are going to be the people that you work with.

As the second year of the newer two-division, statewide tournament kicks into gear, there’s a buzz the boys volleyball community hasn’t really felt since before the pandemic cancelled the 2020 season.With some key departures from a historic Needham program, the Div. 1 state title race has broken back open.Rockets head coach Dave Powell isn’t expecting to catch lightning in a bottle like he did over the last two years with a 46-game win streak and two overpowering state title runs, but Needham still stands as the early favorite. Two-time All-Scholastic setter Raymond Weng, All-Scholastic outside hitter Ethan McCarron and premier libero Jonathan Ochalla all return to headline a deep program famous for its exceptional focus.“We’re just kind of cornered on our own performance and keep getting better every day,” Powell said. “It’s just like we’ve been doing. We just try to focus on our own performance. There’s a lot of good teams out there. We haven’t proved anything and neither have the...After Luis Robert Jr.’s homer ties it, the Chicago White Sox fall 4-3 in 10 innings on a defensive miscue

Taylor bunted on the first pitch of the 10th, and third baseman Hanser Alberto threw wildly to first. Pinch runner Willi Castro scored from second on the sequence to spoil the Sox’s chance at getting back to .500.“That was a bad, bad throw,” Alberto said. “It was a completely bad throw, right to the runner. I threw a little bit sidearm, and that’s why the ball ran into the runner. It was th...Girls lacrosse preview: Teams eye return to normal

For the first time in a few years, the girl’s lacrosse landscape feels settled.The season was cancelled by the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, impacted by the pandemic in 2021 and restructured by the switch to a state-wide, four-division format last year.This season brings familiarity with the new system, and the focus shifts towards the typical player and coach turnover that occurs annually. Still, many familiar squads are projected to have long postseason runs.Westwood is the defending Div. 1 state champion, defeating Wellesley 16-1 in the title game. The Wolverines lost significant talent from last season, but some key returning players are seniors Ava Connaughton, Lil Hancock, Kella McGrail and goaltender Riley Harrington.“I think we have a lot of returners who know what it takes to get to the state championship and the amount of work it takes, and then newcomers who are ready and willing and everyone’s trying to find their spot,” Westwood coach Margot Spatola said. “I think wh...Latest news
