3.1 — The Law
105 ILCS 5/10-10.5 prohibits more than 3 of 7 board members from the same PLSS township (6x6 mile cell). Violation = illegal board. 105 ILCS 5/10-11 makes those seats automatically vacant.

School Support Services vs. Poverty Need
High-poverty districts require MORE support staff, yet IL data consistently shows they have FEWER. National standards shown for comparison.
| Service | This District | National Standard | Status | Poverty Impact |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| School Counselor | 1:288 | 1:250 (ASCA/NASN) | — | Low-income students need 2× counselor time for FAFSA, mental health, career planning |
| School Nurse | — | 1:750 (ASCA/NASN) | — | Homeless/food-insecure students present at nurse 3× more frequently |
| School Psychologist | 1:576 | 1:500 (ASCA/NASN) | — | Trauma, poverty-related stress, and IEP evaluations increase dramatically with poverty |
| School Social Worker | 1:576 | 1:250 (ASCA/NASN) | ⚠ Understaffed | Social workers are the primary poverty-intervention link between school and family |
Why this matters: A district that is 45.3% low income with a 1:288 counselor ratio has a structural barrier to poverty intervention built into its staffing model. FOIA request: demand the district's staffing plan and how it addresses ESSA Section 1114 schoolwide program requirements.
💰 FY2024 Finance (ISBE):
Per-Pupil Expenditure: $25,007 |
EBF Adequacy: —
EBF = Evidence-Based Funding adequacy vs IL formula. 100% = fully funded. Districts below 60% cannot adequately staff poverty interventions, counselors, or CTE programs.

📍 Cook County Economic Context (ACS 2024):
County Poverty Rate: 13.5% | Median Household Income: $83,498 | Bachelor's Degree+: 42.7% | County Population: 5,182,090
County poverty and education attainment are the strongest predictors of school district chronic absenteeism, CTE access gaps, and IAR proficiency. Districts in high-poverty counties require proportionally greater state EBF investment.

- FOIA: Request all articulation agreements with community colleges for dual credit
- Attend board meeting, demand agenda item on dual credit expansion plan
- Contact nearest community college Office of Dual Credit
- File OCR complaint at ed.gov/about/offices/list/ocr if access gap correlates with race (Title VI)
