The 2026 Survey Launches January 21st! - TLCC 2026 Info Slides

Initiated through HB08-1384, the Teaching and Learning Conditions in Colorado (TLCC) survey is a statewide, anonymous survey intended to support school, district, and state improvement planning, as well as research and policy. Schools and districts need more than 50% participation and at least five responses to access their data. The survey opens every two years for public school teachers, education support professionals (including positions such as teacher assistants and paraprofessionals), school leaders and special service providers such as psychologists and social workers.
