Episode: What to expect from Chicago's new school board
Description: Ahead of Tuesday’s election, it wasn’t clear if Chicago’s just appointed school board members could stay on past January.
That’s when a new, partly appointed, partly elected board will be seated.
Turns out, all six members that the mayor just appointed in October after his other board resigned en masse are eligible to stay.
That’s the latest development shaping Chicago’s first-ever elected school board.
WBEZ education reporter Sarah Karp is here to tell us more about what to expect from Chicago’s new school board.
