A group of education advocates are working to put a measure on this yearâs ballot designed to enhance out-of-school learning opportunities to help youth do better in school. The idea, which would be funded by a 5% increase in the stateâs taxes on recreational marijuana, would provide free funding for such things as tutors, special technical training or learning English or some other foreign language. The measure would create the Colorado Learning Enrichment and Academic Progress Program, which also would provide for a replacement to curricula that some school districts have stopped offering because of budgetary shortfalls, such as music, dance and the arts.
