Supplemental Elections
Chicago Public Schools is holding supplemental Local School Council (LSC) elections to fill LSC seats that remain vacant following this week’s District wide elections.
Interested candidates need to submit nomination forms at the school of the LSC they are running for or at the Office of Local School Council Relations, 125 S. Clark, 5th floor during the filing period, which runs April 25th to May 9th. (See below for nomination forms.) Schools will hold candidate forums on May 14th thru 16th. Elections will be held on May 18th with the polls open from 6:00AM and closing at 7:00PM.
Parents are eligible for seats on the LSC of the school their children attend, as are members of each school’s community, and the teachers and non-teaching staff from the school. LSC members cannot be employees of Chicago Public Schools nor can relatives of the principal be eligible to serve on the LSC of that principal’s school. Each LSC is made up of six parents, two community members, two teachers, one non-teacher staff member and the school’s principal. High school LSCs also have a student representative.
The primary responsibilities of LSCs include approving how local school funds and resources are allocated, approving and monitoring the implementation of the annual School Improvement Plans for Advancing Academic Enhancement (SIPAAA) plan, and hiring and evaluating the school's contract principal.
CPS will hold supplemental elections at the following schools:

Unless the Court overrules the Board's decision, these schools will close as of June 30, 2012, and this election will be deemed void.
