The last week of Chicago school council police votes is this week. Here are the details

Last updated on September 2, 2020

Local school councils across Chicago have until Aug. 14 to vote on whether to keep or remove school police officers.

The meetings so far have raised long-standing issues around the transparency of the groups, how much they are supported and trained, and lackluster participation.

The district recently announced it would post a list of campuses with police officers and a centralized list of upcoming votes on the issue. But as the district’s list doesn’t include links to participate in meetings, Chalkbeat and Block Club are continuing to track the upcoming meetings and links to participate.

More than 70 schools will vote on the issue by August 14, per a mandate from the district. Chicago has 144 resource officers at schools, 48 mobile school officers, and 22 staff sergeants. The board is expected to vote on whether to renew the $33 million school police contract at the August 26 board meeting.
