For the past 39 years, IASB, in cooperation with the Chicago Board of Education, has provided an opportunity for educators at the Joint Annual Conference to visit a Chicago school through the Chicago Schools Tour.

Five tours are planned on November 19, 2010. Once again we are offering a cross-section of opportunities that include new locations, cultural connections, and diverse learning opportunities. We are very excited about the range of school choices for you to visit. Read each synopsis of the schools as each offers a unique experience. Visit the schools' websites to learn more about your choices. These schools highlight our theme: SCHOOL, FAMILY, COMMUNITY.

The tour officially begins with a buffet breakfast at 8:00 a.m. in the Regency Ballroom A & B – West Tower. The Regency Ballrooms are located downstairs on the Gold Level in the West Tower. Tour buses will depart immediately after the breakfast at 8:45 - 9:00 a.m. from the hotel.
