Here @ChiPubSchools meeting @WilliePreston_ speaking passionately as a state senator & CPS parent. He’s asking this board not to take out an irresponsible high interest loan. He said that’ll make it harder for Springfield legislators to get more education $$ into the state budget
Scratch that! @ChiPubSchools board member @jennicuster cited Robert’s Rules of Order and the simple majority asking the budget discussion to be moved up on today’s agenda STANDS. Score one for transparency

Here @ChiPubSchools board meeting, speakers continue lamenting the closure of 50 schools in 2013 but just think of the budget deficit CPS would be facing if there were even more schools with 100 or less students.
From @ChiPubSchools meeting, the vote to move up the discussion about the FY26 budget went down. Rivas, Smith, Custer, Rosenfeld & 8 others voted 4 transparency & Thatokura, Lozano, Bautista & others voted against. How many people will be watching 5 hrs into this meeting?
“For years I have been highlighting how @ChiPubSchools and many other districts are siphoning money away from schools parents want their kids to attend to subsidize schools that parents don't want their kids to attend” Thanks, Jed! @CharterFolk charterfolk.org/whip-around-ma…
Celebrating @PedroCPSCEO after his talk at City Club. A leader who inspired us all to do better. Good bye and good luck
Joyful field day at @gla_chicago. Nothing like 1st graders playing tug-o-war @ILCharters
At @ChiPubSchools board meeting, @PedroCPSCEO is saying goodbye. We were so lucky to have you back for 4 years. Massachusetts, you are very lucky.
Progressives need to reckon with Brandon Johnson slowboring.com/p/progressives…
Since @coreteachers is continuing to lead @CTULocal1. Maybe they will focus on fighting Trump’s destructive policies at the national level and stop trying to destroy IL charter schools. nytimes.com/2025/05/19/us/…
The @ChiPubSchools new board is hosting community meetings to help guide their search for a new leader. At the first one in District 1 with @jennicuster and @EdBannonNWChi Exciting to see so many people out cpsboe.org/supt-ceo-search
Thank you, teachers! "You're cultivating humanity in its earliest stages. Your nurturing of curiosity, compassion, and critical thinking will yield outcomes beyond our current imagination." medium.com/@DaniPierce/an… #TeacherAppreciationWeek
Charlie Myers nailed it today in public comment: “Our students don’t need us to choose sides-they need us to choose them.” People like Charlie remind us why we show up. Thank you.
Alain Locke Charter school students and families out in force to fight for the 10-year charter renewal they deserve. @ChiPubSchools Board Meeting
At the @ChiPubSchools board meeting, the @NLCP_Lawndale speaker spoke passionately about how the charter high school supports “dreamers to turn into doers.”
At this inspiring event by @TheLuminaryCol Maybe things can get better.
So this “unionist” thinks charter schools should close. What about the 1500 unionized teachers in charter schools? You are ok with them losing their jobs? And what about the parents who chose them?

At the @ChiPubSchools board meeting, the @CTULocal1 is chanting and drowning out Perspectives Charter School speakers. 😓
Jen Conant, @CTULocal1 charter chief, applauds @ChiPubSchools for delaying renewal votes, keeping her members, teachers who pay her salary, guessing if their schools will stay open. Not sure charter teachers are getting their money’s worth
Surrounded by a sea of red @CTULocal1 in the @ChiPubSchools board meeting overflow room. Rowdy!
