- Chicago’s school board is supposed to have a noncitizen advisory board. It still doesn’t exist.
Chicago’s school board lacks a required noncitizen advisory panel 18 months after its first elected members were seated. State law mandates the mayor create the board to include noncitizen perspectives, but no timeline or guidelines exist, and the mayor’s office has not finalized an application process. The advisory board’s absence is concerning for parents and advocacy groups ahead of November’s school board elections.
