After three public hearings where families got to speak their minds, the public finally heard from all members of the Evanston/Skokie School District 65 Board of Education on the possible closure of the Dr. Bessie Rhodes School of Global Studies.
Bessie Rhodes won’t be the only closure, according to Superintendent Angel Turner, who said the process must happen in phases. She pointed to the district mission — Every Child, Every Day, Whatever it Takes — and said closing Bessie Rhodes flies in the face of that promise and others made by the district to focus on equity and inclusion.
“We have two years before the building closes. We have to do something over the next two years actively to care for members of our community,” Hailpern said. “If it doesn’t make sense to people, we need to communicate it a different way. Communication is a message received, not just sent.” Others asked the board if the three public hearings held on the issue were simply a formality to a foregone conclusion.
