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.

I’m watching it happen all along the commuter rails in lake county. The cities have failed, so those that can are leaving.
Has been the Illinois plan for quite a while.
