I agree and have a track record of bringing these community issues to the electeds I work for, because that's part. I can say that Rep. Gabel cares a ton and is waiting for someone on that board to do their part, but also looking for opportunities to help. I just don't think it is realistic to think the other electeds can, could, or should solve what is inherently the school board's primary function: strategic vision and oversight of execution of that vision.
The board we elected didn't do their jobs, doesn't matter the reasons. The board has power. The board members haven't used it, even if you want to give them the best of intentions. Outside electeds can do pressure, sure, but let's not get into Harley Clarke, the branch libraries, or any other crisis we have gotten into. The Mayor letter worked here, but it doesn't always.
And all of that is to still say I do not have the experience where Tuesday plays into this either for or against. Our current D65 is post Blago or post Rauner, much better analogies for your future podcast.
Do you think NU would help dig the district out? If there was a responsible board plan for it? I read years ago that Yale and Princeton contribute quite a bit to their local school districts. I don’t know much about this stuff works.
