2024 Chicago Board of Education election

The Chicago Board of Education election will take place on November 5, 2024, alongside the statewide general elections. This will be the first ever election to the Board, which has been an appointed body since its formation in 1837.^[1]

The election was planned after the state passed a law in 2021 that would create an elected school board. The new Board will eventually have 21 members, consisting of members from 20 districts and one at-large Board President.^[2] The 2024 election will elect 10 members from newly created districts; the other 10 members and the board president will be appointed. In the 2026 election, the number of districts will increase to 20, and all members and the President will be elected.^[1]^[3]
