Let’s FACE It Together
The Office of Family and Community Engagement at Chicago Public Schools works to build and strengthen relationships with our parents and community partners to deepen engagement across the district. Spread across the city, our FACE team works hands-on with our district’s communities, hearing stories of our families and their schools. These diverse perspectives weave together to create a rich tapestry of Chicago families’ shared experiences. The Let’s FACE it Together podcast elevates these stories and uplifts the voices that CPS serves.
