are getting new names, some of them to replace racist or problematic namesakes, as the school system unveiled a new process Wednesday for more schools to be renamed in the future.
Schools looking to change their names can now submit a request, launch community engagement that takes students’ opinions into consideration, draft an equity plan and vote on a name. The school’s regional administrator and then the Board of Education must approve a change before it’s made. CPS Chief Education Officer Bogdana Chkoumbova said the school community chose Monarcas as its new name because the word is Spanish for monarch, and "like many families in this community, the monarch butterfly travels from Mexico to Chicago.", Caldwell Academy of Math & Science will become Daisy Bates Academy of Social Justice. Charles P. Caldwell was a Chicago physician and president of Chicago’s Municipal Tuberculosis Sanitarium.
