Ellen Rosenfeld
Democrat for Chicago School Board District 4
As a parent, a teacher, and a dedicated community member, I have a unique connection to Chicago Public Schools that shapes my understanding of our education system. I've witnessed both the successes and challenges that CPS faces, and I’m passionate about addressing them head-on.
I truly believe that every child deserves a safe, rigorous, and high-quality education, no matter their income, race, religion, or circumstances. My diverse experiences have equipped me with a deep understanding of the complexities and opportunities within our education system, especially in CPS. Serving on the Board of Education would be the perfect opportunity to combine my knowledge with my genuine desire to improve student outcomes across all Chicago schools.
I, like many Chicagoans, share the belief that Mayor Brandon Johnson should not control the School Board, and the Chicago Teachers Union should not be on both sides of the negotiation table. I am the only candidate independent enough to listen and champion the needs of students and parents in the 4th district, not the Mayor and CTU.
DEMOCRAT. CPS PARENT. TEACHER.
“I have seen CPS from every angle: as a parent, former teacher, local school council leader, and current staffer. I am the only candidate in District Four who has spent their entire adult life committed to Chicago Public School students. ”
