THANK YOU JEFFCO!

SLHS Community and all of Jefferson County,

Thank you for your partnership, support, and ultimate belief in our school district/system when approving our 3A and 3B bond and mill initiatives!  While we still have work to do, this victory provides our schools stress releif and light at the end of our tunnel.  This community along with all of JEFFCO persevered through the many curve balls and mis-guided information and are now on the victory stand ready to  move forward.  One aspect to the victory removes the two furlough days scheduled for April and May as they become full working days, thus providing employees with 1% back into their salary from the 3% cuts we have sustained over the past two years. 

Once again, a HUGE thank you to the support and teamwork you've provided SLHS.

Jeff Pierson
