The February 2004 edition of “DPS Today,” the monthly television show about issues and progress in Denver Public Schools, features updates on two mill levy initiatives approved by voters last November.

The first is a conversation about the $6.5 million initiative that will expand art and music education in elementary schools. The second is about the $3.5 million initiative designed to expand Early Childhood Education and kindergarten offerings across the district.

Guests this month include:

• Clark Strickland, chair of the Denver Public Schools Arts Resource Council and member of committee overseeing implementation of the arts and music mill levy effort
• Park Hill elementary school teacher Cristina Sandoval
• Cheryl Caldwell, Director of Early Childhood Education for Denver Public Schools
• Tammy Brown, Early Childhood Education specialist for the northwest area

The show can be seen every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 8 a.m. and every Friday and Saturday at 8:30 p.m. throughout the month of February. The show is carried on Denver 8 cable and is hosted by News 4 reporter Anna Alejo.
