On January 28, 2025, a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request was sent to Bloom Township High School District 206. The request, made by South Cook News, a media organization committed to providing comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, sought copies of all emails and memos from the past year that contained the keywords "Lucy Calkins" and "Units of Study."
The request emphasized the importance of access to public records for journalists in fulfilling their professional responsibilities, which include holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public. As such, South Cook News believes it is eligible for a fee waiver as a media professional.
According to the Illinois Report Card, the average state teacher salary in 2023 was $73,916, and the state average Administrative Salary was $116,908. The average student-to-administrative ratio is 141:1, and the average student-to-teacher ratio is 17:1. Furthermore, it's worth noting that 58% of teachers in Illinois have a master's degree or higher.
As we at South Cook News continue our work in bringing transparency and accountability to local government affairs, we remain committed to providing our readers with comprehensive coverage of these issues. We await further developments regarding this FOIA request.
