The Board of Education is currently crafting a five-year plan for CPS but has not sufficiently addressed the future of charter schools, the group said Wednesday at a rally outside Jones College Prep.
A total of 42 challenges were filed against the 27 candidates, meaning some of the school board hopefuls face more than one. Challenges could focus on improperly filed paperwork or the number of signatures, including duplicate names or wrong addresses.
Just days after the candidate filing period ended, the Chicago Teachers Union endorsed 11 candidates for 10 seats, including parents, educators, faith leaders and community organizers.
The window for hopefuls to submit their minimum 1,000 signatures to get on the ballot closed Monday afternoon with more than two dozen final-day submissions wrapping up the week-long process that kicked off the elections.
