Voter Service - Voter Registration for Denver High Schools
The Denver LWV has partnered with the Denver Clerk and Recorder's office to reach out to several Denver-area high schools, located in neighborhoods which traditionally have had low voter turnout. Voter registration efforts began last spring and are continuing. The high schools we have visited so far include Bruce Randolph, John F. Kennedy, and George Washington. Outreach is still continuing to connect with several other schools. Volunteers with the Voter Service committee have set up tables at lunch hours, senior check-out day, back-to-school night, and parent-teacher conferences. While not directly registering many students, we have distributed information, answered questions, and provided reminders about upcoming elections. We've enjoyed our conversations with students, parents, and school staff. Please get in touch with Voter Service Committee chairs Jeanette Scotland or Anne Duncan if you are interested in helping or if you have ideas for student voter outreach.
