  • On and Off the Cliff
    The Newsletter of The Cliff Dwellers ON AND OFF THE CLIFF Volume 39, Number 2 March-April 2017 International Women’s Day-2017: Be Confident in Your Power! By Mike Deines CD’03 International Women’s Day had its roots in the labor movements at the turn of the Twentieth Century in North America and across Europe. The United Nations began celebrating IWD on March 8 during International Women’s Year in 1975, and two years later the U.N. General Assembly proclaimed a United Nations Day for Women’s Rights and International Peace to be observed by Member States in accordance with their historical and national traditions. In essence, IWD is a time to reflect on progress made, to call for social change, and to celebrate acts of courage and determination by ordinary women who have played an extraordinary role in the history of their countries and communities. The Cliff Dwellers at the urging of then President Leslie Eve Moran introduced Recht CD’03 became part of IWD celebrations in 2011. The Club IWD keynote speaker Andrea Kramer. has focused on bringing together a host of interesting women to inspire and guide the next generation of young women in Chicago. To that end, again this year a group of 30 scholars from nearby high schools (Chicago Tech Academy, Jones High School, and Muchin High School) shared lunch and inspiring stories with nearly 70 women and Club members. Eve Moran CD’10 once again organized and hosted the March 8 program. The keynote address was given by Andrea Kramer, a partner in an international law firm where she was a founding member of the firm’s Diversity Committee.

This year, as in each year since the Arts Education Plan was released, the progress report identifies some important gains. Foremost among these is that a higher percentage of CPS schools than ever before, serving a higher share of CPS students than ever before, are meeting the criteria to be rated as Strong or Excelling in the arts. This achievement is particularly encouraging considering the financial challenges the district has faced in recent years. Despite a frequently uncertain and challenging financial climate, and with additional arts gains clearly needed, data reflect that both the district and principals have continued to prioritize arts education in their schools.
