School Board Reviews Mill Levy Ballot Language

The Denver Public Schools Board of Education is scheduled to hold a work session Thursday, August 13, on the proposed 2026 mill levy override. The district says the session will include a vote on ballot language for the measure. A mill levy override can provide additional property-tax funding for school priorities such as staff compensation, academic programming, classroom supplies, health benefits, and safety. The district's published timeline identifies the work session as a key step before the proposed measure proceeds toward the November 3 election.
