Marian Catholic President Vince Krydynski said he sent out an email this summer to teachers establishing a policy for neutral classroom, meaning no flags or signs that align with identity in anyway can be put up. The examples Krydynski gave were the LGTBQ community, Black Lives Matter or blue lives matter, he said.

Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension.

Expect no retraction or apology. This what they do.
The state’s existing buyout program for its own pensions is the precedent for Chicago, which should be a warning: Look out for similar exaggerated claims and shoddy analysis.

A Catholic institution only needs to be concerned with Catholisism.
Good they’ve gotten ridden of some wokesters in their midst. They’ll fit in at any public school system.
Good way to get rid of the Communists and their agenda!
Good Job!
MCHS is doing the right thing– promoting neutrality. And someone should do a little homework and study up on the history of BLM. Founded by two socialists. Originally promoted the slogan “Pigs in a blanket, Fry ’em like bacon” directly related to anti police activity. And how about supporting rioters and looters for months and months. And what has been done with the ten million dollars or so that has been ripped off by the folks running the organization? I wish the folks who resigned had stuck around to promote neutrality, understanding and openness through teachings and organizations that don’t… Read more »
Salute to my alma mater for politically neutral classrooms.
Yes, but points must be deducted for having a diversity council to begin with.
My thought as well. Not sure what they expected would come out of a “diversity” council other than, “We have to groom children in classrooms to identify with flawed narratives from every woke/liberal/progressive victim-class that we can find or invent.”
