A Local School Council (LSC) is the governing body of a public school in the City of Chicago. By law, every CPS school has one.

Local School councils consist of the school’s principal, six parents of students who attend the school, two community members who reside within the attendance area of the school, two teachers, one non-teacher staff member, and, in the case of high schools, one student.

Dear Neighbors of Uptown, Buena Park, Sheridan Park, Lakeview, Edgewater and all my supportive friends and family:

I have appreciated your well wishes and kind thoughts encouraging me to seek an elected seat on one of our neighborhoods’ Chicago Public Schools’ Local School Councils.

The election is in April, and as of today: I am considering it.

Yours,
and Looking Forward,

— Dan
