The similarities
that unite communities throughout Illinois are greater than the
differences that divide us. We believe our hopes and dreams for our
children are common ground on which we can join forces to support one
another, learn from one another and work together to ensure the best
possible public education for all Illinois school students.
-
We support
improving the public education systems serving all Illinois students �
particularly those forced to attend failing schools � in order to create a
better educated workforce, a stronger statewide economy, a greater
understanding and mutual respect among communities, and a more just world.
-
We recognize that
funding plays a significant role in the inequities among Illinois public
school systems, and welcome the opportunity to explore, learn about and
understand the pros and cons of various state funding models and their
implications for students across the state in hopes that this process will
result in high quality systems for all students.
