Advocating as a Parent within Chicago Public Schools

Parents are the strongest advocates for their children. A good teacher, parent and administrative team can accomplish great things for children and communities. Sometimes, there are breakdowns in the process and you need to advocate for your child. 

When that happens, know that you're not alone and there are resources to help you.
