Shaffer Elementary Schools
The position of Social Emotional Learning Specialists in Jefferson County Public Schools is a direct result of the passing of the Mill Levy 5A and 5B in 2018. Because of the funds made available through this tax increase, every elementary school in Jeffco is able to have a .5 (half time) Social Emotional Learning Specialist to support Jeffco kids. Thank you, Jeffco Community!
