This is a remote assignment. The Chicago Board of Education has been meeting via Zoom and live-streaming it on Youtube. The livestream may not appear until or after the meeting start time, so give it some time and refresh your Internet tab if it’s not showing up. Currently, the information posted on the Chicago Board of Education website includes instructions for in-person attendance but we expect this will change.

The Chicago Board of Education is charged with governing the Chicago Public Schools (CPS), setting policies, governing operations, and charting the direction of current and future programs.
A list of board members (with headshots) is here. Board members are currently appointed by the mayor. In 2021, Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker signed a bill into law that will gradually transition to a 21-member elected school board over the course of 2024-2027.
A list of CPS executive leadership is here.
