Audio and summary
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
Hey downvoter, you missed some.
The teachers and CPS administrators should get a big pay raise because of the great job they are doing, just ask them.
Featherbedding is a time honored union tradition. CTU has the ‘run of the mill’, so pucker up and pay Chicago.
Don’t confuse a government jobs program with education.
The team of CPS and CTU is a complete and utter failure. But who cares right? Because most of the students are black. This institution and its teachers spend $28,000 per student and they still fail miserably, if they received $100,000 per student the result would be the same. The CPS administration doesn’t give a damn about education. And the CTU is just pure evil. And parents that send their kids to CPS are child abusers.
3% of 55 students are reading proficient. Since I did learn math at school way back when, I know that 3% of 55 = 1.65. So any money spent on this school was spent to teach 1 child to read, and provide day care for the rest. At least $240k just for the principal and assistant principal.
Instead of just a cost per pupil, it would be interesting to see the cost per proficient student.
I think that would be ($28,000 x 55 / 1) or roughly 1.5 million dollars.
