Community Updates Updates from Chicago Public Schools & Our Community Chicago Public Libraries Chicago Public Library is pleased to announce the 2022 Summer Learning Challenge: City of Stories! Running June 27th - August 14th , Families are encouraged to Register in person at the library or online. After registering, they will receive an activity booklet which includes space to track their reading. Once they have read 500 minutes and completed 1 activity, they will receive a very special prize: their very own City of Stories T shirt! In addition, we will have many fun events and activities at the library all summer long. I've attached handouts to share with your students. Please feel free to reply to this email with any questions. Visit https://www.chipublib.org/summer-at-cpl/ for more information.   The CPS Virtual Academy is now enrolling students for SY23.   Enrollment is no longer limited to COVID-related conditions. Qualifying students (PreK-Grade 12) must have a medical condition indicated on an active IEP/504 and their medical professional must determine that the student would benefit from the virtual learning format.   The application is open until July 1st; acceptances will be announced by July 15th. If demand exceeds capacity, acceptance will be determined by lottery. Qualifying students who were not accepted will be placed on a waitlist.   Accepted students will be dually enrolled with the Virtual Academy & the district-run physical school. The physical school will still receive funding for the student and will be required to host the student for in-person testing for required state assessments. Parents/Guardians should complete this interest form (Spanish) to begin the application process. Questions/inquiries can be directed to VirtualSY23@cps.edu. Additional details are available here.
