Welcome back to The West Steps! Today, we return to a highly complex and often misunderstood topic: Colorado's school funding system, and specifically local “mill levy override” funding. Leslie Colwell, Vice President for Education Initiatives at the Colorado Children's Campaign; and George Welsh, former superintendent of Cañon City School District, join us to help make sense of this complicated component of our education and tax system. Our guests explain the ways property tax resources school districts, how it creates and widens inequities, and the impact this has on students.  Access to a high-quality education should not be determined by zip code, yet in Colorado, that is overwhelmingly the case. Our state's school finance system – the ways we resource schools with revenue and our allocation formula – is complicated to understand and highly inequitable. Supplemental revenue can be raised through local mill levy overrides, which require voter approval to increase the amount of mills residents pay for property tax.  However, not all property is valued at the same rate, allowing some communities to raise more funds than others. Currently, 64 school districts in the state have zero local overrides to support students. Especially with educational inequities widening as a result of the pandemic, it is essential that our policymakers work to correct this longstanding barrier to student success. This year, SB22-202 hopes to begin addressing these problems by establishing a state-funded Mill Levy Override Match Fund. This fund intends to level the playing field for schools in low-wealth communities who otherwise constantly struggle for adequate resources to meet student's needs. While this bill will not solve Colorado's school finance woes, it is one step toward improving school funding so that a student's access to educational opportunity is not limited by their zip code.  To learn more about this bill and its journey through the legislature, click here. Support the show (https://www.coloradokids.org/)

On the Thursday edition of The Sports King Show, we open up talking about the NFL Schedule which officially comes out tonight at 8pm. We discuss how several leagues are looking to open up and how that may look. We also discuss the potential possibility of Cam Newton coming to the Redskins to play for his former Coach Ron Rivera. We discuss how this may affect Quarterback Dwayne Haskins Jr. and if its the right move to bring in a veteran signal-caller to help Washington who is looking to win now with a new regime in place. In Hour Two, we welcome former Virginia Cavalier Linebacker Chris Slade who went on to achieve great things as a member of the New England Patriots. We discuss Chris playing for two stoic coaches George Welsh at the College level and Bill Belichick at the NFL level and how their approaches to the game were quite similar. We also talk about Chris as a successful High School Head Football coach who coached two players at Pace Academy High School in Georgia who were both drafted in rounds 1 and 7 in the recent NFL Draft. We close out the show with a message of hope from Chris and a look ahead to his team's prospects for the 2020 campaign ahead. The Sports King Show airs LIVE Monday-Friday 10am-12 Noon eastern time. www.sportskingradio.com

In the latest installment of the CavsCorner Podcast, we welcome special guest Tony Covington to talk UVa football.

We'll look at the challenges that face the defense, particularly in terms of depth, as well as what we can expect from the offense in a new scheme.

Last week, Cañon City, Colorado discovered that dozens of students at the local high school had been taking and trading nude photographs "like baseball cards," shaking up the parents, police, and schools. In a town best-known for one of the tallest suspension bridges in the world, this was – to put it mildly – big news.  According to local reporter Sarah Rose, residents of the town have been pretty much unable to talk about anything else since. And the rest of the world has come knocking as well – media outlets from New York to Japan have shown up to chronicle the unfolding drama. It's a whole lot of anxiety and it's a compelling story: Through an anonymous tip, authorities discovered a system of nude photos hidden away in secret "vault" apps on students' phones. The apps – disguised as calculators or media players – hid more than 400 revealing photos. According to Fremont County District Attorney Thom LeDoux, even some of the teens involved could face charges related to the production, possession and distribution of sexual exploitive material. Yeah. It's a dramatic story... but it's also not the only one like it. In this story from Long Island, two teens were arrested and more were suspended from school over sharing a sexually explicit video involving two minors. And a 17-year-old in South Carolina is being charged as an adult for exchanging nude photos with his girlfriend.  We've decided we need to talk about it. So this is where we'll start: What do you think we really need to worry about when it comes to teens and sexts? Email us or send a voice memo to notetoself@wnyc.org with your thoughts.
