In case you missed it, CFE was recently showcased on a 30-minute edition of "Chicagoing," on ABC 7 Chicago hosted by Bill Campbell. The show highlighted CFE's impact on the landscape of education in Chicago. Several CFE grant recipients were featured, including: Margie Smagacz (Assistant Principal of Franklin Fine Arts), Lindsay Mehlberg (Chicago Choir Academy), Monica Sims (Pershing West) and Gloria Moyer (Otis Elementary). These teachers have each won numerous grants with us. Ms. Sims will even be traveling to Crete to study writing this summer through CFE's Fund for Teachers grant.
