CHICAGO (CBS) -- The Illinois state senate is moving forward with plans to transition to a fully elected Chicago Public School board.

The goal is to have all elected members following the 2026 November general election.

They're holding a public meeting on Thursday so parents, educators, and others can weigh in on the best path for that transition.

There's also a map-making portal online where you can draw where you think the district boundaries should be.
