Chicago Public Schools have Local School Councils (LSCs) to help with
the operations of each school. The primary responsibilities of LSCs
include approving how funds and resources are allocated, developing
and monitoring the annual school improvement plan, and evaluating and
monitoring the school’s principal.

For more information on the LSC, check out this CPS link.

"Great news! The deadline has been extended, come on out new parents! Calling on Parents: Peirce School has an LSC vacancy for a parent. If you are interested in becoming an LSC member, please fill out a candidate nomination form that can be obtained in the main office. Candidate forms and interest statements must be turned in to the main office by 3:00 p.m. on Tuesday, October 18, 2011. The current Peirce LSC will hear candidate interest statements at the October 27, 2011 Local School Council meeting. Current LSC members will go into closed session to make a final decision on a candidate. Thereafter, a vote will take place in open session. The newly elected candidate will then take his/her seat on the LSC on October 27, 2011."
