CSC 2024-25 Election
Every school within the Denver Public School District has a Collaborative School Committee (CSC) in place. The Bradley CSC is different from the Bradley PTO. Unlike the PTO, the CSC focuses on bringing together staff, parents, and community members to create and implement a plan to promote high achievement within the school. Being a part of the CSC is an exciting opportunity to be involved in our school community, not to mention to participate in the education of all our students. We will be holding elections for three open parent positions on the CSC with nominations opening September 3rd. Please see here for details. We hope you’ll consider serving. If you would like more information concerning the CSC, please contact Steph Itelman, CSC co-chair, at steph.itelman@gmail.com
