BREAKING NEWS! CPS Preliminary School Closing List

PURE was given this list in a meeting with a CPS staffer this morning. We were asked not to share the list so that the staff of schools on the list would not panic. We informed the staffer that we would not agree to that condition, and that we felt PURE was not a more important stakeholder in this process than the staff of affected schools. We have already been called on the carpet by a high-ranking CPS official for posting this list.

According to CPS, this list is still fluid:
