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.
The other things that are not being discussed concerning the schools would include faculty absenteeism, numerous faculty members defrauding the Government by filing phones PPP claims during Covid, equipment like the Covid laptops being completely unaccounted for by anyone and the reading and math proficiency reports that use percent of students rather than raw totals. Remember when a student body of 160 in a building built to hold 1200 has a 15% proficiency in reading, that’s only 24 students who can read. Concerned parents have found other opportunities and abandoned CPS.
Just realizing that now?

If you want education for your children, beg borrow and steal to get them out of CPS.

They have told us that many times here in their comments. They stopped pretending it’s about the kids and education a while ago.
