CHICAGO, IL - Recent data from the Illinois State Board of Education shows the more Chicago Public Schools spends, the worse students perform on academic testing. Test scores and academic performance have continued to drop, while education spending has continued to rise – with most of the spending on payroll. Since 2012, education spending has increased by 97%, while reading proficiency has decreased by 63% and math proficiency by 78%.
About three-quarters of CPS students can’t read at grade level and even fewer can do math. Faced with that, what is the Chicago Teachers Union leadership seeking in its new contract? It is pushing a lengthy list of costly demands that have little to do with improving the academic performance of students and everything to do with politics.
These costly demands include housing for homeless students and families, $2,000 stipends for migrant students, subsidies for weight-loss surgery and drugs, more time off and environmental initiatives such as an electric school bus fleet. Their climate and social justice demands are political issues best decided by elected leaders rather than union bosses who are quick to strike and bargaining with their former co-worker.

Han has conducted interviews with some of the people crossing the border, learning about the experiences and aspirations causing them to seek asylum in America. Click here to read more.
