You have the option to document this meeting in person or remotely, via live stream. Please note that Chicago Board of Education meetings run relatively long (The assignment end time is an estimate based on past meetings’ duration).
If you attend the meeting in person, an additional hour will be added to your pay for this assignment. The meeting will be held at Chicago Public Schools Headquarters (42 W. Madison St., Garden Level, board room). Take a photo to let us know you were there. Prior to the pandemic, the CPS board room frequently reached attendee capacity and broadcasted video of the meeting in an overflow room.
If you plan to document remotely, the meeting will be live-streamed at https://www.youtube.com/c/ChiPubSchools/videos. The live stream may not appear until or a few minutes after the scheduled start time. If you don’t see it right away, give it a few seconds, then try refreshing your Internet tab to see if it loads.
