Last CPS board meeting today. Finish up almost 17 years of continuous service on school boards
and commissions at city, state and federal level.
I began my involvement in public education as a way to honor my parents who worked hard, and
sacrificed much so I could have the educational opportunities they never did. Grateful for the
opportunity you gave me to continue to do that as a CPS board member and interim CEO.
Has always been an honor and privilege to work with you to serve our City, and look forward to
continuing to do so for years to come.
Thanks,
Jesse
