Elmhurst Parents for Integrity in Curriculum

BOE President Kara Caforio explains "it's not just about proficiency."

D205 Board of Education President, Kara Caforio, suggests 80% of our students achieved at or above grade level in reading, and 78% achieved at or above grade level in math. Assistant Superintendent, Scott Grens, agrees. Unfortunately, this isn't true.

Ed explains the proposed budget is being presented in summaries that are too vague, and should be redone. He calls for more transparency, especially because the district is proposing a maximum tax increase.

Dave talks about things being taught that have nothing to do with education, and his non-white adopted children being made to feel unsafe when teachers tell them how awful their white parents might be.

Deanne discusses curriculum concerns, cratering academic numbers and the derisive attitude toward parents from district leadership.

Tom presents district leadership with academic proficiency data, and questions whether SEL is actually improving student outcomes.
