The citizens, taxpayers and stakeholders of the city of Chicago want our state legislatures to make into law that the city of Chicago will hold city wide elections for the office for Chicago Public Schools board members and for the office of CEO.
Why is this important?
I am a teacher, a home owner and a taxpayer here in the city of Chicago. I am also a product of the Chicago Public Schools. My parents were educators with this school system. My son attended and graduated with honors from the Chicago Public Schools. I am a stake holder with this school system but, I want to make sure that CPS is truly committed in enhancing the education of your young people instead of helping the rich and powerful. I believe that the citizens of Chicago want and deserve an elected school board instead of a hand pick group that are more beholding to the mayor than to the students, the parents and citizens of our city. The citizens of Chicago want a democratic process as to who will help govern our school board and school system and who will truly listen to the people of our city. Let's end patronage in our school system. Let's Elect Our School Board Members!
