How are Chicago students doing? 
What helps Chicago students succeed?

These questions are especially important today, as Chicago fully elects members of the Chicago Board of Education for the first time.

There is a lot of information swirling across the city, and lots of opinions, too. But what matters most?

The Kersten Institute for Urban Education is building a series of issue guides to help Board candidates, Board members, and the community members who elect them understand what matters most for students’ success.

Check back here in mid-September for the issue guides--available in English and in Spanish.
