What happened

— Three months after Colorado's longest education strike in recent history, Sheridan School District parents are now leading an effort to recall the superintendent and board of education.

Why it matters

Denver7 Aurora and Arapahoe County community reporter Adria Iraheta happened to run into the group of Sheridan parents and educators at the county administration building this week while working on a different story.

Common ground

The group was there to submit a petition with the elections division — an effort to recall Sheridan's superintendent and board of education.

Perspective signals
