As a CPS alumni I believe that school should never be closed. My school was at risk of closing and it would have impacted my education greatly

I was truly shocked to hear that Amandla is on the chopping block. Amazing things happen there! Save this school!

Our school is a community of hard working, passionate students and staff. We out perform other schools in the neighborhood and are constantly improving. Politics are now threatening the livelihood of the students and families in our community.

Amandla outperforms the other schools in Englewood and should not be closed. Kids should not suffer as a result of politics.

Amandala is changing lives of those who truly deserve it. Don't let politics decide the future for these students...afford them the same advantages you want your own children to have. Keep Amandala open!!

#doitforthekids # saveamandla My child has attended Amandls School since the 6th grade and the support she has received is phenomenal...the encouragement...the help to get involved in programs and receive resources outside of Amandla but connected through Amandla...relationships with parents teachers and students are closely knit...teachers are accessible throughout the day at school and at night while at their homes with their families. We have access to personal cell phones....they travel with our youth to bus stops to provide safety , stay over to assure children can participate in afterschool programs when their ride is going to be a little off ...its just not school work but the school is concerned with the students home life and making efforts to support in anyway they could to benefit the students....it would be a travesty to close Amandla. My child was already achieving cps goals and the staff of Amandla challenged her and pushed her more...THEY BELIEVE IN HER AND EXPECT AND THEY ARE DETERMINED TO SEE HER SUCCEED. I AM AMANDLA..WE ARE A FAMILY PLEASE DONT CLOSE ARE SCHOOL I am proud to say I have a child that attends Amandla High and came from Amandla grade school....because she is college ready #saveamandla

Amandla is what all urban schools should be. We need more like this. Don't close an inclusive, community-focused school with high standards and great results.
