Senator Nancy Spence introduced a proposal to establish Florida’s STAR program for performance pay in Colorado.

The bill would provide the incentive to more school districts to do as some innovative districts already have – make sure good teachers get good pay. Colorado needs to see to it that the teachers who make a difference are rewarded and retained.

Unfortunately, the bill was killed on a strict party-line vote in committee.
