This is the NEXT STEP in the campaign for an Elected Representative School Board.

With the closing of 49 schools and massive budget cuts, parents, students, and community members and organizations around the city are joining a NATIONAL CALL and here in Chicago, are calling for a ONE-DAY boycott of CPS.

Our program is:
  • An Elected Representative School Board.
  • A moratorium on all school closings, turnarounds, phase-outs and charter expansion.
  • TIF Funds back to CPS and a financial transaction taxfor education.
  •  The proposal for sustainable school transformation to replace corporate, top-down interventions for struggling schools!!

 JOIN US THIS WEDNESDAY AT 10:00 at CPS HQ!!
