Does a successful petition split the district?
A successful petition means that a committee of stakeholders (including BVSD) will be formed to study all of the issues and develop a plan for creating two school districts. The plan is then put before the voters. The composition of the committee, the charge of the committee and the ballot process are all governed by Colorado State statute. A more detailed outline of the process can be found at our Process web page. The plan will have to address funding, debt, taxation, and administrative cost issues.
