Pablo Varela is supposed to be barred from working in CPS for inappropriate contact with students ... we have been blocked from any information about this case that we have been looking into for at least six months.
Lets see what CPS does today, September 28, 2022 and will they hold everyone involved accountable or will they just scapegoat this as unusual.
Agenda Item 22-0928-OP5 Permanent Debarment of Pablo Varela
Wednesday, September 28, 2022 at 10:30 AM
CPS, Manufacturing Renaissance and the CTU failed to disclose this issue to the public. Who knows how many years it has been since the incidents and how many youth have had contact with Mr. Varela since then.
We have information on how this happened, we are now just waiting on the details of exactly what the non-certfed instructor did to the students.
We have unconfirmed reports and will not speculate until we receive corroborated facts.

RE: FOIA Request for Review – (2022 PAC 72459); CPS File No. (N011037-051022)
Dear Assistant Attorney General Christopher R. Boggs:
I am writing in response to Request for Review 2022 PAC 72459 in which you ask for details that support the Chicago Public Schools (CPS) response to Mr. John Kugler ’s May 10, 2022 FOIA request below:
Please provide a list or records for Pablo Varela, working at or with Austin Polytechnical Academy as a machine shop teacher sufficient to show the dates of employment as an employee, vendor or contractor and assignments including: his resume and application; letter of resignation or termination records; any job recommendations or employment verification records in his file, including requests from other potential employers and; whether the board has designated him as a “ Do Not Hire” employee. • Disciplinary records including, but not limited
to: reprimands, warning resolutions, suspensions; resignation agreements and notices of disciplinary hearings. • Investigatory records, including: school- and district-level investigation records; statements of charges related to the district’s intention to dismiss the employee; reports of potential misconduct to state teacher licensing and disciplinary bodies; police or
child- welfare communications and negotiations related to Varela or other complaints related to Varela. To the extent the foregoing public records are maintained electronically, please provide the public records in that format. If it is not feasible to furnish the public records in the specified electronic format, then please furnish the public records in the format in which you maintain them. Please provide responsive records as you retrieve them. In the unlikely event that you claim any portion of the above public records to be exempt from disclosure under 5 ILCS 140, in
writing please (i) identify which portion or portions you claim are exempt and the statutory provision or provisions you contend apply; (ii) set forth the reasons for your conclusion that such
portion or portions are exempt; and (iii) release the remainder of such records for inspection and copying, redacting only the portion or portions you claim are exempt. Please provide the
information within 5 days, as required by law.”
The CPS FOIA Office responded to Mr. Kugler ’s request on June 24th, 2022. A copy of CPS FOIA Office’s response letter that was released was provided to your office by Mr. Kugler in reference to his appeal.
As noted in the response to this request, Pablo Varela was an employee of a former vendor to CPS and not an employee of the District itself. For this reason he does not have a CPS personnel
file or associated employment records.
However, Varela was the subject of a misconduct investigation by the CPS Inspector General, which was substantiated. Included with this letter for your confidential review are various records related to that matter that are responsive to Dr. Kugler ’s FOIA request.
Because he was not a regular employee, the District has been moving forward with the legal process of debarment to permanently prevent Varela from working as a vendor. This process has been ongoing and for that reason the FOIA office opted to withhold responsive records under exemption ( f) as factual information inextricably intertwined with an ongoing decision- making process.
However, the FOIA office has been advised by the CPS state litigation department that the Chicago Board of Education is expected to vote on final action on Varela’s proposed debarment
at its upcoming meeting in September.
Thank you,
