Key
Issues
01
Equitable Arts and Sports Funding
Every Chicago student, in every neighborhood, needs fully funded art, music, and sports programs where they can build community with each other
02
School Safety With Adequate Resources
Schools can be safer when we care for students, families, and communities. All schools need a nurse, social worker, counselor and case manager everyday, with reduced caseloads. Families need infrastructure such as reliable transportation and affordable housing to create stability for students.
03
Hire and Support Black and Latine Teachers
Our teaching force should represent our student body. Many teachers of color were targeted by discriminatory school closure policies in CPS and we need to continue to repair the harm this inflicted on our communities.
