Suzette Bross ’90 of Chicago wants to celebrate Chicago Public Schools. Four years ago, Bross founded CPS Lives, a nonprofit that partners professional artists with elementary, middle, and high schools in the Chicago Public Schools system during the academic year. Artists supplement classroom learning, facilitate after-school programs and collaborate with students on creative projects throughout the year. A professional photographer, Bross believes the arts are an engine for learning, change, and community service. A former public school student herself, Bross considers CPS Lives a “coming together of all sorts of strands of my life.”
