Chicago budget hearing voices for integrated, improved schools
Representatives from three area schools and three neighborhood groups testified at the Chicago Board of Education budget hearings on December 20. They urged physical improvements, a lighted library program, an end to segregated schools, enhanced human relations efforts, and citywide curriculum standards. They also called for school social workers and home visits to help problem children, and urged integration, citing quotes from Dan Dodson and stressing the need to address racial inequality in Chicago schools.
