6/13/25 Dear Mosaic Families, We are writing to inform you about an important change regarding our school schedule for the upcoming 2025-26 school year. Our District, like many across the nation, continues to face a significant shortage of school bus drivers, alongside ongoing financial challenges. To address this reality and ensure that CPS can provide uninterrupted bus service for all students who rely on it, Chicago Public Schools (CPS) will be adjusting bell times at various schools. After a careful analysis of the District’s transportation needs, CPS transportation department determined that Mosaic School of Fine Arts will have new bell times for the 2025-26 school year. This adjustment is crucial for maximizing the utilization of our current bus fleet and achieving significant cost savings for the District. You can find the complete details of our school's updated schedule below:
Mosaic's New Arrival Time:8:30 AM
Mosaic's New Dismissal Time:3:30 PM
Effective Date: Monday, August 18, 2025
We understand that changes to school schedules can impact family routines, and we appreciate your understanding and flexibility as we implement these necessary adjustments. Sincerely, Mosaic Administration

11/7/24 CPS is rolling out an updated method to track performance and progress in our District and schools, called Continuous Improvement and Data Transparency (CIDT). Feedback was gathered from more than 21,000 stakeholders. Why the change? CIDT applies many lessons learned from the old rating policy to provide a more complete picture of each school and more effectively support continuous improvement. What’s in the new policy?
Approach to Accountability: Schools are not ranked. There is shared accountability for student success between the District and schools.
Defining Student Success: Student success and achievement are defined by robust and holistic learning and well-being measures.
District Support: The District provides equitable resources and ongoing support to schools, so schools can create the necessary conditions to improve student learning experiences.
Visit cps.edu/CIDT for more information. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CPS está implementando un método nuevo para medir el rendimiento y progreso en nuestro distrito y escuelas. Este método se llama Mejora Continua y Transparencia de Datos (CIDT, por sus siglas en inglés). Se recopilaron comentarios de más de 21,000 personas. ¿Por qué el cambio? El CIDT aplica muchas de las lecciones de la política anterior de clasificación para proporcionar información más amplia sobre las escuelas y establecer más eficazmente la mejora continua. ¿Qué contiene la nueva política?
Rendición de cuentas: Las escuelas no se clasifican. El distrito y las escuelas comparten la responsabilidad del éxito de los estudiantes.
Definición del éxito de los estudiantes: El éxito y los logros de los estudiantes se definen mediante medidas de aprendizaje integral.
Apoyo del distrito: El distrito proporciona recursos equitativos y apoyo continuo a las escuelas, para que éstas puedan crear las condiciones necesarias para mejorar las experiencias de aprendizaje de los estudiantes.
