What: The four largest education associations in Illinois and the regional offices of education (ROE’s) in the state will
unveil an education policy brief entitled Vision 20/20 to members of the media and then the public.
Background: Vision 20/20’s policy platform reflects educators from across the state and is representative of opinions from the southern
tip of Illinois through the northern Chicago suburbs. Although the City of Chicago operates under a separate school code,
they face many similar challenges. This vision is the result of input from over 3,000 key stakeholders, discussions
with field experts, and a review of current literature on best practices.
