LSC Election Judges

Local School Council election judges play a crucial role in LSC elections every year by overseeing the election day process.

Judges are responsible for monitoring the electoral process by:

  • Verifying voter eligibility
  • Issuing ballots to verified voters
  • Counting votes
  • Presenting the election results to the school community

Judge applications may be submitted to any CPS school that is hosting an LSC election or the Office of Local School Council Relations at the Garfield Park Office on the third floor of 2651 W. Washington Blvd.

The deadline for submitting applications is March 8, 2022.

Applicants are encouraged to submit applications by the end of January for processing and preferred placement.

All LSC election judge applicants must file the following forms and be verified to work in the United States by the IRS. All candidates must also complete a mandatory two-hour training, and will receive more details after they submit their applications. The two-hour training is planned to be in-person. Please see updates on this page for more information on days/times and locations.

Judges can be assigned to work Wednesday, April 20th and/or Thursday, April 21st. Judges are paid $250 PER DAY worked.

Submit the judge application form, IRS W-9 Form and CPS Vendor request form via email to LSCJudge@cps.edu.
