Dear Friend, 

From all of us at New Schools for Chicago—thank you. This year we’ve seen tremendous growth for our organization and made the public education ecosystem stronger for students and families in Chicago.

We are proud of and grateful to every donor, supporter, and advocate who has championed the cause of great schools for every child in every neighborhood with us and with Chicago Public Schools.

Together we:
  • Made Parents' Voices Heard
  • Enhanced Kids First Chicago (K1C)
  • Made Schools More Accessible to Families, Through GoCPS
  • Protected High-Quality Options
  • Released a Quality-Focused Publication
  • Launched Great Schools Matter
  • Expanded the Impact of our School Improvement Grant Program
We invite you to explore our year in review below, and we look forward to building on the foundation we’ve created together in 2018, realizing higher-quality outcomes for all kids and a stronger Chicago.
 
Happy holidays to you and yours!
