CPS Community Budget Feedback Session today at Dyett High School.
I’ll be attending the CPS Community Budget Feedback Session today at Dyett High School.
Doing this work across our schools and communities has really shown me how much these budget decisions impact people in real life. It’s not just numbers on paper. It’s staff positions, after-school programs, resources for students, support for families, and the everyday things our schools need just to function.
I’ve been hearing directly from school leaders, parents, and community members about how budget cuts are already affecting our kids and our schools. So when CPS is facing a $732 million deficit, I think it’s important for families, students, staff, and community members to be in the room, ask questions, and speak up about what they’re seeing.
I’m going today to listen, learn, and better understand what this means for our communities.
Our kids deserve fully supported schools, and our families deserve to be part of the conversation.
The session is today, June 30th, from 5:30 PM to 7:30 PM at Dyett High School, 555 E. 51st St.
