As a new school counselor at Gallistel Language Academy, Rogelio Lopez was charged with a big job: finding a way to get a new playground built for Gallistel's 600-plus students. Lopez's appeal to the Chicago Works Community Challenge wound up winning a $1.5 million grant to create a new, state-of-the-art playground for the East Side school.
