About Voices of Color

The Voices of Color Committee [formerly District P.A.S.S. (Partnerships for Academically Successful Students] is comprised of parents, Cherry Creek Schools teachers and administrators, and community members. 

Our goal is to foster an inclusive and safe environment to support the success of students of color. We do this by:

• Engaging community members in meaningful and effective partnerships
• Building relationships between schools and family communities
• Providing parents and guardians of students of color voice and direct access to the administration

For upcoming District Voices of Color dates and meeting information email the Department of Equity, Culture and Community Engagement: CCSDEquity@cherrycreekschools.org, to be added to the email distribution list.

2024-25 District Voices of Color Meetings take place from 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM
