There are more “sides” than is typical in a Bloomington-Normal school board election. Yet all despite those political entanglements, each candidate also has deeply personal reasons for running, in many cases shaped by their own experiences with Unit 5.
Budget cuts are partly responsible for animating many new influencers looking to shape public opinion on the Unit 5 referendum, expanding the political playing field to include school board candidate slates, student-led organizing, and PTOs.
In an interview with WGLT, new Yes for Unit 5 chairperson Corin Chapman and group spokesperson Patrick Mainieri explain what they think they has changed from November to now.
As the Unit 5 school board began its meeting Tuesday — to make expected budget cuts — a crowd partially filled the Normal West auditorium. By 5:15 p.m., more than 40 people had signed up for 3-minute slots to make public comment before the board's vote.
Starting next fall, there’ll be no more sports or clubs for Unit 5 junior high students — no sports teams for freshmen, and no band/orchestra for fifth-graders.
