Lightfoot earlier supported an all-elected board. But she "has since come to her senses — as I see it — and changed camps, evidently realizing that subjecting the administration of public schools to the grubby shake-and-howdy of big-city politics is not the best way to go. Though it allows a mayor to wash her hands of bad student outcomes and toxic labor negotiations, it opens the door to ideological proxy battles waged by high-dollar donors from all over the country."
Zorn is such a dolt. The “grubby shake-and-howdy of big-city politics” isn’t the danger of an elected Chicago school board. The Chicago Teachers Union is the danger. Having CTU members stacked on a Chicago School Board would be a disaster. Every week they would vote themselves massive raises, absurd benefits, less and less classroom time (if CTU cant keep the Wuhan Virus scam continuing) and hateful leftist brainwashing ‘education’ programs. CTU is consistent in their massive greed, avoidance of work and hate of CTU students and parents.
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.

100% correct.
When the elected school board proponents have lost the support of the insane leftist Zorn, you know you got a problem.
