LSC Registration Deadline Extended!

UPDATE: LSC candidate registrations rise to 6,000 by noon March 15. LSC leaders are confident that at least 7,000 candidates will sign up by the March 24 deadline. View list of schools with number of candidates.

The Office for LSC Relations has a new director, Carole Wood, who previously has been Acting Director of the office. Ms. Wood has expressed a strong willingness to collaborate with organizations that recruit LSC registrants, although she has made it clear that there are no additional funds for recruitment, beyond those that were initially committed.

This extension would not have been granted by the Board without the work of a coalition of 23 organizations that work with LSCs and recruit registrants. Below is the list of groups:

  • Alianza
  • Black Star Project
  • Blocks Together
  • Chicago Parents Union
  • Caucus of Rank and File Educators (CORE)
  • Chicago Principals and Administrators Association
  • Chicago Teachers Union
  • Designs for Change
