Teacher salaries have historically been one of the largest cost drivers of spending in the CPS budget. The increase in spending has not translated into better outcomes for students. Since 2012, spending has increased by 97 percent, but student proficiency in reading has declined by 63 percent and by 78 percent in math for grades 3-8.
Teachers outnumber the students and can make these demands. They probably out number the taxpayers who actually live in Chicago.

The insanity of the CTU will end when the
House of cards fails. Taxes are a finite source
Exceed the supply poof it fails.
Then time for the usual gang of idiots to ask what happened! How could this happen.
What are we going to do.
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.

Whenever they finally ask what happened the solution will be more money needed.
DESPITE ALL THE BS ……..KIDS STILL CAN’T READ…….THESE PEOPLE ARE DISGUSTING WANTING ALL THIS MONEY FOR DOING A BAD JOB!!
Lets just hope only CHICAGO pays for the CHICAGO Teachers Union demands!
In Finland, teachers are paid much less than the CPS/ CTU require.
Also ANYWHERE else in the US!
With much better results also, instead of churning out a class of 85% “ thumbs downers “.
And their students can read and do math!
