Chicago Teachers Union contract demands are totally divorced from reality – Wirepoints

Details emerging about Chicago Teachers Union’s upcoming contract show just how divorced its demands, both extreme and expensive, are from the reality at Chicago schools. It’s not just about massive salary increases, but also about money for migrant students, climate initiatives, abortions and gender-affirming care. About blocking parental notification. Count on CTU’s demands to veer further from reality until the public finally says no.

Gov. JB Pritzker calls it “ethics” reform.
It’s rare to see city leaders in Chicago take an open, unabashed stance on the collapse of literacy. To complain is deemed as too political, too racist or too anti-public schools. So it’s refreshing to see Willie Wilson, a successful businessman and leader of the black community, call for a literacy initiative “with the goal of getting 100% of Black students reading at grade level.”
Woke goes broke.
I would like to express my sadness at the “geniuses” at the MacArthur Foundation giving out “genius” grants to morons and imbeciles.
WOW, Im sure Ted & Mark are bringen home $633gs at WP??? Non-profit equity hustle on steroids, unbalievable!!!: “The announced staff reductions coincided with a $6.4 million WBEZ studio renovation coming online and after what tax records show was a nearly 19% pay increase for Moog that boosted his annual compensation last year to more than $633,000.”
Makes you wonder what all these other non-profit execs are banking off all the COVID $buck$ handouts??
LOL Learn to Code, freaks
