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.
5 school days missed @ cps with an abysmal performance track record of meeting any academic standards.
THANKS CTU, THANKS JB–thanks for screwing low income kids and families once again @ +$28,000 a year to fulfill your gready political interests🤩🤩🤩👍!!!
Why would anyone hire a CPS educated student? Only got half the education of normal kids.
At 4x the cost
Of course not. More free money for CTU teachers.
Reading is not your strong suit. What source do you have that teachers are getting paid? Just more ignorance from another low information commenter.
“The decision means teachers won’t automatically get paid for that missed time, a sore spot for educators who were upset to lose nearly a week of pay without gaining much in safety negotiations during the city’s Omicron surge.”
This is actually a good thing to curb union strikes. It sends the message that you will not be able to get that money back.
