PRESENTATION  
A. Regional Office of Education (ARPA Request)  
Dr. Darlene Ruscitti, Regional Superintendent of the Regional Office of Education, provided the  
Committee with a Work-Based Learning Funding Proposal presentation. The vision of the  
program is to provide every student in DuPage County with access to a work-based learning  
model that accelerates their academic and experiential learning, opens opportunities for  
postsecondary success, provides multiple pathways to meaningful careers, and meets the needs of  
the business communities. The goal of the program is to design, build and execute a regional  
K-12 school district driven work-based learning model that has a strong focus on diversity,  
access and equity for all students within the County. Out of the 13 high school districts in the  
County, 9 currently participate in this program. The County is currently working with about 45  
business and has approximately 45 more on the waiting list, with the majority of the business  
being in the manufacturing or information technology fields. GPS Education Partners is a  
non-profit that works directly with both the businesses and the students to help prepare and  
match both together. So far this model has been very successful with great results. The funding  
request for this program is $250,000 for one year, which would provide for staff pay, GPS  
Education Partners' services, and transportation for those who need it. By a show of hands, the  
Committee showed their support for moving forward with this request.  
B. 2023 Draft DuPage County Precinct Map Presentation  
Jason Blumenthal, Policy and Program Manager, discussed the DuPage County Proposed Voter  
Precincts for 2023 with the Committee. The timeline of the process was reviewed first. Any  
updates or suggestions received from the County Board members and State's Attorney's Office  
will be brought before the Committee at the April 11, 2023 Finance Committee meeting. Any  
updates or comments produced from the April 11th meeting will then be discussed at the May 9,  
2023 Finance Committee meeting as a proposed final draft. At either the first or second meeting  
in June, final versions will be voted on. Statutorily the Committee cannot vote on the maps until  
June. Tom Ricker from the GIS team provided a brief demonstration on the online access tool  
which allows for Committee members to login and view the various proposed changes.  
Committee members asked for a chart that shows the name and number of a township and the  
number of voters within it, as well as a clear timeline of events for the next few months.  
Committee members had a consensus on contracting a third-party election lawyer to assist the  
County with this process.
