Call on Mayor Johnson to Appoint Current CPS Parents to the Board of Education!
December 16, 2024, is the deadline for Mayor Johnson to appoint the remaining 11 members to the Chicago Board of Education. The Mayor's appointments will join the 10 newly elected representatives in January 2025. Sign our petition now to tell the Mayor you want him to appoint CPS parents who can balance the Board's racial representation.
What CPS Parents Want
Fair racial representation: The school board should reflect the student body it serves.
Parent seats on the board: Some Board seats should be reserved for CPS parents.
Non-citizen participation: Parents should be allowed to vote, regardless of immigration status.
Campaign spending limits: Money should not determine who wins.
Compensation: Board Members should receive some compensation for their time.
