Become An Informed Voter about the Chicago School Board Election

This November, Chicago reaches a milestone: for the first time ever, residents will elect their entire Board of Education — all 20 district seats, plus a citywide Board President. This is the culmination of years of organizing for local control over our schools, and it's a moment your voice can genuinely shape.

Key dates to know:

• Early voting begins next week

• Election Day is Tuesday, November 3

To help you get ready, WBEZ, the Chicago Sun-Times, Chalkbeat, and Block Club Chicago have built a free, non-partisan voter guide covering every district race and the citywide president seat. This guide's predecessor won a national journalism award for how it served CPS parents and underserved communities — so you're getting information you can trust.
