A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request was submitted to the Glenview Community Consolidated School District 34 on January 13, 2025, by North Cook News. The media organization is seeking information about the number of non-U.S. citizens, often referred to as "migrants" or "illegal aliens," currently enrolled in the school district.
North Cook News is a news outlet dedicated to providing comprehensive and accurate coverage of local governmental affairs. The FOIA request is part of their ongoing efforts to ensure transparency and accountability within public institutions.
In their request, North Cook News emphasized the importance of access to public records for their journalistic responsibilities. They believe that as a media professional involved in gathering and reporting news to the public, they are eligible for a fee waiver under the Illinois Freedom of Information Act, 5 ILCS 140.
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 await a response from Glenview Community Consolidated School District 34 regarding this FOIA request, we continue our commitment at North Cook News to keep our readers informed about significant developments affecting our local communities.
