CPS has made Englewood, South Chicago and Riverdale priority communities for the next round of Renaissance 2010 schools for 2010-2011 and the district is looking for people to serve on a transitional advisory council for each of those communities.

Councils will be comprised of parents of school-aged children, high school students, local business owners, community residents, aldermen, educators and faith-based organizations. The councils will host a public community forum in each area in early July. The deadline to apply is June 1. For more information, call Brenda Bell, council coordinator for CPS, at 773-553-1538.
