Ted joined Shaun Thompson to talk about about the Chicago Teachers Union’s absurd new contract demands, why so many Chicago teachers are chronically absent, and Brandon Johnson’s failed first year as mayor.
What a representation of Chicago’s plight.
The bill passed despite their votes in response to certain incidents where local prosecutors are thought to have been too lenient with non-citizens assaulting cops.
The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board cited Wirepoints’ analysis of Chicago student proficiency data in their latest piece condemning the Chicago Teachers Union’s outrageous contract demands…all while a vast majority of Chicago’s children graduate unable to read at grade level.
Ted joined Tom Miller of WJPF to talk about the details of Gov. Pritzker’s proposed $52 billion budget, why the state is struggling now that federal covid dollars have run out, the controversy surrounding Tier 2 government pensions, why Illinois’ expensive education system fails to teach children to read, the outrageous demands of the Chicago Teachers Union, and more.

Wait a minute, Doc. Uh, are you telling me…that you built a time machine… out of a DeLorean?
This is overt discrimination by race, grounds for a substantial class-action lawsuit with little chance for school district to prevail, expensive litigation and costly settlement charges, with Evanston taxpayers as the Big Losers.
I’ve said it before- nobody is forcing the education system to implement terrible policies. They are doing it to themselves. How many bad ideas do they have to force on children before people figure out that the education system and those who run it are the problem?
What a tragedy for these African American kids. When you stick them in a separate classroom like this everyone in the world assumes it is a bunch of underachievers. They are stigmatized from the start. It won’t take them long to figure it out either. What a horrible idea with– once again– with the kids bearing the burden of absurd policies by administrators.
Does this race-based action include the water fountains too? Just asking. I assume they doing it so the white and Asian kids wont get held back by classes having to constantly remediate backwards through the textbooks. Good idea.
It cost the Rockford taxpayers over $250M to reintegrate the the students in the school district because some thought the city was too segregated. Now back to segregation little by little.
This has been going on for several years. I will never understand why this hasn’t been covered by the Chicago media. Read the Stacy Deemar lawsuit involving District 65.
Years ago separate but equal was an educational institution norm. However the liberals decried that method and classroom integration followed. Should this program be a success then the blacks and liberals did a great injustice to the blacks with their integration goals of the past. Should it fail then the backers of the “IQs are determined by racial attributes” theory’s have considerable ammunition for their future battles. This is a definite watch to see the outcome and the ramifications thereof. Either way it goes I see losses ahead for the liberals on this one.
I love those videos by that comedian who parodies that ‘woke’ and ‘racist’ are the same thing

Hmm, underachieving students need to go to school with Chinese students.
Racism is racism anyway you color it.
Correct this is such poison on Evanstons part.
