Back to school in Chicago: fewer than 1-in-3 students read at grade level – Illinois Policy

Each year the district gets more money to educate fewer, and proficiency is still far behind where it should be compared to spending.

No problem Haven’t you heard? JB and the Dems want to lower the standards for scoring math and reading competence– so, Wallah, a whole bunch more students are reading at grade level. The poor kids and their parents are getting duped into thinking the kids are reading and doing math better than they really are. What a nasty, cruel hoax to so many Illinoisans.

Looks like the CTU wants its graduates to go out into a world that has low expectations of their performance. How does that make them competitive for jobs?

Garbage men (and women) don’t need an education.
The job pays well and comes with all the perks and benefits, including a lifetime pension.
That’s all they’ll qualify for with their lack of education.
