The true tenor of Denver's new school board may be revealed Nov. 30, minutes after new members are sworn in and the officers are elected.
The board, with three new members who won their seats in a feisty campaign framed as a battle of charter schools versus neighborhood schools, will be presented with a challenge.
Does it reverse a decision made minutes before by the old board about turnaround strategies for three district and three charter schools, which could be as controversial as closing the school programs and replacing them with charters?
Or does it move on to new business?
Reversal, observers said, would send shockwaves through the education community.
