Good morning! This is Reema Amin from Chalkbeat Chicago. TGIF.

<p style="font-family:Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size: 16px;color:#393939;line-height: 22px;">
Yesterday, on one of the more beautiful mornings we’ve seen this summer, I walked over to Acero Santiago. It was the charter school’s first day of the 2025-26 year.

<p style="font-family:Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size: 16px;color:#393939;line-height: 22px;">

And in other news, a majority of the Chicago Board of Education has signaled its opposition, for now, to the district’s proposed budget plan. Eleven board members are

calling for the plan to include a loan and a pension reimbursement

to the city.
