Peck has one of the highest Opportunity Index scores in district—only 25 elementary schools ranked below them. (Is this an instance where SPED budgeting needs to be appealed, which is pretty standard every year, or is it a change due to funding model? 🧐) docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…
@Eugene_Scott @MollyJongFast The main issue is that schools are funded by local property taxes which causes huge imbalances in local resources. Eliminate the "district" funding paradigm and fund all schools identically no matter their locale.
@Eugene_Scott I've been telling everyone who would listen that school vouchers are nothing more than neo-school segregation. White kids who get the vouchers go to elite schools. Black and Brown kids get the vouchers and go to magnet schools.
School segregation between Black and white students has returned to 1968 levels axios.com/2024/04/24/sch…
It's time for our annual Health Fair! 🎉 Join BPNC, BPNN, the 12th Ward and partners for a community resource fair where residents can participate in a Zumba class, get their blood pressure and glucose checked, and attend workshops on buying your first home!
For years my neighborhood school saw budgets gutted due to a funding model that elevated selective enrollment schools over neighborhood schools. Budget cuts that decimated services to the school. I am just so fascinated by all this attention now. What’s different here?
Chi Public Schools says no type of school being hit harder than others. But parents say principals present a different picture. AND CPS REFUSES TO RELEASE SCHOOL BUDGETS to the press. Where is the transparency? wbez.org/stories/cpss-s…
Chicago will elect school board members for the first time in November. CPS parents, tell us what you need to hear from the candidates! @WBEZ airtable.com/appntMqi8irasU…
“the report found nearby schools in cities like Chicago separated by an attendance zone line but with wide achievement gaps and completely different student populations based on race”
School segregation between Black and white students has returned to 1968 levels axios.com/2024/04/24/sch…
@Eugene_Scott Very troubling. But why do we even allow "elite" or "magnet" public schools?
Let me try to understand this… We need money for CPS Schools and staff, affordable housing, addressing homelessness, closing deficits, pension debt payments, and more.. …but let’s dump a Billion for a stadium? That’s the move? #TheMathAintMathing

Don't just push students to activate. YOU can do something with your big adult self. You can phone call, email, and pressure admin. You can fund students. One of the things I hated as a student organizer is that adults with jobs and resources would wish us well and keep moving.
