Amy Parsons to be paid $1.1M in resignation settlement | Exclusive

Colorado State University has agreed to pay President Amy Parsons $1.1 million for her resignation, the Coloradoan learned through an open-records request. Parsons formally announced her resignation Oct. 28 , six days after she and CSU System Chancellor Tony Frank signed a resignation settlement that requires the payment to Parsons be made, “minus any necessary withholdings,” by no later than Jan. 5, 2027. Parsons’ resignation will become effective Dec. 31, 2026, according to terms agreed to in the settlement that amended the five-year contract she signed when she was hired that would have continued through Jan. 31, 2028. Her annual salary is $686,238, according to the university's online compensation report . The settlement releases Parsons, Frank and the CSU System and its Board of Governors from any obligations that were contained in her original employment agreement. "The terms of President Parsons’ agreement reflect the remainder of her contract, which ran through January 2028, plus the equivalent of five months of salary in recognition of her significant achievements and long-term service to CSU," according to a statement from the CSU System that was shared with the Coloradoan by spokesperson Tiana Kennedy after this story's initial publication.

Colorado punishes families for choosing Catholic schools | Opinion

Erika Nagle spends nearly three hours a day in the car driving her children to school. The cost of living in Castle Rock, Colorado, is better, but she’s willing to make the sacrifice to trek to St. Mary’s parish school in the Archdiocese of Denver because of, in her words, “just how amazing and extraordinary the school is.” The state of Colorado is making her sacrifice even more. St. Mary’s has been excluded by the state from a purportedly universal preschool tuition benefit program it launched in 2023. The program is designed to give each child 15 hours or approximately $6,000 toward annual tuition . The reason? Catholic schools don’t qualify because of their religious teachings on marriage and sexuality . Nagle has, to date, forgone $18,000 in tuition aid she would have gotten had she sent her kids to any other preschool in Colorado. On Nov. 3, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in the case of St. Mary Catholic Parish v. Roy to determine whether that amounts to religious discrimination. Choosing Catholic schools carries an extra cost Until the case is resolved, countless families sacrificing to send their kids to Catholic schools are losing out on dollars they

Keep Chalkbeat’s valuable education coverage at the top of your feeds by clicking here and checking the box next to our name. About half of Aims Community College’s students report they don’t have insurance, are underinsured, or on Medicaid. Half also say they face mental health challenges. To address those student needs , officials at the two-year college in Greeley took an uncommon step for a community college; they built an $18.4 million, 30,000-square-foot Student Health and Wellness Center that offers low cost mental, dental, and physical health services. Aims’ investment addresses a gap in community college support . Just 16% of two-year institutions offer on-campus medical services, compared with about half of four-year universities, according to an American College Health Association spokesperson. Research by the association shows access to mental and physical health resources can improve students’ likelihood of graduating. The building, opened in August, is meant to offer students on-campus healthcare options and a one-stop shop for additional services such as addiction support and therapy, said Larry Pakowski, vice president for student affairs. “We want students to focus on what it is that they’re
