Chicago Public Schools Chief Ron Huberman and his partner, Daren DeJong, had their first child, Alden DeJong Huberman, according to the Chicago Sun-Times.
Earlier this year, Huberman came out publicly in a Sun-Times article. In the piece, Huberman discussed what it meant to grow up gay: "It has given me a great sensitivity for the need to be inclusive. If I didn't grow up being part of a group that was viewed differently, I may not have that sensitivity."
