A retired Chicago Public Schools teacher, Debby Pope, is running for re-election to the Chicago Board of Education against Kyna Lenhof, a former special education teacher, and Daniel Basco, a data scientist. The three candidates, who are vying to represent the diverse District 2b, prioritize ensuring classrooms have adequate funding and resources, but differ on how to obtain the financing.
Pope, appointed to the Board by Mayor Brandon Johnson in 2024, is backed by the Chicago Teachers Union, while Lenhof has the support of Common Ground Collective and Basco presents himself as an independent voice.
