The biggest problem facing Chicago Public Schools is they're focused on a pension crisis, and not whether second graders can read. In this episode, Lissa & Thom are joined by Jessica Biggs — a candidate for CPS board president. Jessica is a CPS parent, former principal, and veteran educator with a practical vision for serving students instead of the system's debt. You'll hear how Jessica plans to engage communities to take ownership in their schools, and why her experience with Teach For America drives innovation in the classroom.
