Troy LaRaviere

Nine Lakeview schools will lose $884,625 as CPS announced $120 million in citywide cuts Tuesday.

Principals will learn how $100 million in district cuts will affect their schools Tuesday afternoon.

Chicago Public Schools principals want lawmakers to end their stalemate over the budget.

Teachers laid off based on 10th-day attendance might be rehired after attendance rose on the 20th day.

The principals said it was their push against the proposed cuts that led to the extended appeal time.

Some parents fear the principal's responsibilities at Blaine will fall to the wayside as his star rises.

The Board of Education admonished LaRaviere Principal Troy LaRaviere for "unsatisfactory conduct."

As schools contend with $60 million in cuts districtwide, they're seeking out alternative revenue.

Meanwhile, five Lakeview elementary schools will gain funds due to increased enrollments.

Despite his criticism of CPS, Blaine Elementary Principal Troy LaRaviere got a new four-year deal.

Adam Parrott-Sheffer is correct, said one LSC member, calling the school board "disrespectful."

Troy LaRaviere was picked to be principal because "he will speak his mind," the LSC chairman said.
