Amanda is a shining example of what committed staff and teachers can do to improve the education of our inner city youth. Chicago needs more schools like Amandla not fewer!

Amandla serves its community well, with gains that are well beyond expectations. Call out CPS for its politics. Keep Amandla's doors open for years to come, so that it may continue to be a place of education, self-discipline, and a fixture in the community.

As a former Amandla teacher I can say without a doubt that the teacher care beyond what is required of teachers. They work hard and love even harder. The school is doing great things and with time for proper implementation it will continue to redefine what the future holds for the students of Englewood

Amandla is a truly inclusive environment - all students work together to support one another. Don't take this away from this community!

In 2011 I worked at Amandla as the assistant to the Dean of Discipline. Everyday I was constantly impressed with the level of dedication and love from the faculty and staff. I watched as new students, often untrusting of procedures and expectations, would struggle in the Deans office but with time and care, they flourished at Amandla. Of the six schools I have taught at in the Chicago area and I have never seen a staff that collectively matched Amandla’s level of devotion to student growth and prosperity. I do not support the closing of this school.

These kids need this program. Look what these teachers have done to build a safe and effective learning space. And they have improved in every way you asked them to! And they still keep getting better. Honor these kids, and your promises.
Stop closing schools!
