Field note
It can be done! Full Ballots For Local School Council Elections!
Daniel Kleinman·
Do it, Chicago!
“The late push resulted in 6,129 candidates running for LSCs, enough so that more than 96% of schools have enough people to fill open seats and meet quorum requirements next year, the district said.
Parents, teachers, support staff, students and community members are eligible to run for LSCs. For the first time, kids in sixth through eighth grades are eligible to serve on 420 elementary school councils, and 759 students that age have submitted applications to run.”
