Lex-Law Day at Exchange City


We couldn't be more grateful to everyone who turned out for the great LEX-Law Day celebration at Exchange City. The participating law firms have made it possible for more than 1500 additional CPS students to participate in and attend Exchange City. It's an amazing gift to the schools, to these very fortunate students, and to the City and it's just the beginning. We also really appreciate Lisa Madigan's continued support and her heartfelt comments at the ceremony. Special thanks to our student presenters, Ariel Colon and Emmanuel Garcia, I've included some of the shots of our guests at the celebration below:

We couldn't have pulled this off at all without the hard work and perseverance of Barbara Pollack and Christina Sirtak and the help of our students, Ariel Colon and Emmanuel Garcia.
