Illinois SB1787 creates a state Rural Advisory Committee to give Rural and Small Schools a voice. If you support this, take a minute to create a witness slip in support by clicking here:

This is another one of those decisions that should be made locally. What is right for one district is not right for another. When will we realize the one size fits all doesn't work?
#MakeItLocalIL
A decision to have an SRO should be made by local school boards and admin, not the State legislature, one size does not fit all. https://t.co/m0rPxgcdLx
Illinois we can do better. We need to give control back to local entities. Our schools are too diverse for a one size fits all. #MakeItLocalIL
@Edwin_Shoemate @RuralED @ISBE @GovPritzker @DaleFowlerIL It's important we keep pushing and keep putting our situations in front of them. The downstate rural schools are so far removed from their experience they don't know what they don't know. @ISBEnews @ISBESupt @GovPritzker #MakeItLocalIL
This is how we progress in Illinois. Notice the difference in thickness of school code. 1116 pages, 1358 pages to 1724 pages. When will the state stop adding mandates?

Before another mandate is passed, it’s time for ISBE to conduct an audit of all mandates governing daily instruction.
I content the path of “legislative oblivion” was paved with the best of intentions but now negate local control & student choice. We need a voice.#makeitlocalL
This! #MakeItLocalIL

@il_fps @iftaft @CTULocal1 This is not your call to make for 850 plus districts in IL for an optional (not high-stakes) assessment we have not seen yet. #MakeItLocalIL. You never answered my question about engaging practitioners statewide. Your silence gives me my answer. Process matters yet you ignore.
@il_fps My question is can it be used for diagnostic/formative purposes IF a district wants. Otherwise this flies in the face of #MakeItLocalIL. The language needs work. I am still waiting on the answer how many educators working in schools have been engaged in this conversation.
@KyleThompson643 Yes!!! Let’s take today and thank all our #makeitlocalIL superintendents and partners.
@heatherhalgren @IHSA_IL Districts should be able to make their own decisions based on their local situation. #makeitlocalIL https://t.co/eQn1rIoQ1K
@EWoodhouse7 @IHSA_IL I've been opposed to the state mask mandate from the beginning and want schools to have the ability to decide what's best for their own community. #makeitlocalIL
We have been fighting this battle for years. This is out of control. https://t.co/mWrM3vTlWe #makeitlocalil
Chad Watkins of @IllinoisASA sharing that the Illinois legislature added 100 new education laws this year. 100 in a decade is probably too many, but seriously folks, 100 in a year, this year, of all times? Just unbelievable and a ton of even more unfunded mandates. Yikes.
@Greg_Teschke @jgarrison203 @jonjkerr @MonticelloCUSD ⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️It is a very fine balancing act. Can't hurt the athletes and students, but need to continue to express how nonsensical the mandate is at this point. The similar outcomes in the rest of the midwest has proven it. #MakeItLocalIL
More districts joining in on the #MakeItLocalIL advocating for local control in more than the current temporary issues. https://t.co/UJBFNtH8j0
More than 80 districts sign letter demanding more local control for school boards https://t.co/lW7roUF8SN. @scottdoerr @zchatterton @IllinoisASA #makeitlocalIL
Beyond the current temporary issues, we need to continue to try and return decisions back to local school boards. #MakeItLocalIL
Yesterday I got to advocate for #MakeItLocalIL and tell the @Salem_HS story. We are following the mask mandate because our metrics dictate it, not @ISBEnews. We hope to have the same local control when our metrics indicate a different path.
