Chicago Schools Reopen As Teachers Union Continues Push To Stay Home – Block Club Chicago

At Belding Elementary in Irving Park and Suder Elementary on the Near West Side, some teachers were planning to set up outside the school so they could teach remotely while pre-kindergarten teachers had to return to work inside the building. Said Kim Payne, a fifth grade teacher, “We’re standing strong in solidarity with all our teachers and our little guys that the city is pushing to come back to school. They shouldn’t be coming back yet.”
