Most recent (2011)\ disheartening 'stats' from School Dist 299 (CPS)

I encourage you to visit the following 'sites': isbe.edu (state board of ed.); and, iirc.niu.edu.   

CPS updates

Chicago Teachers Union Executive Board member Jennifer Johnson blew the whistle

on these astroturf progressive organizations pretending to work for the people
while taking in millions of dollars to privatize public education.
This shows that one person can make a difference!

The petition provoked a barrage of responses, with Chicago teacher Jennifer Jones [sic] drafting a letter on a MoveOn.org-affiliated site, SignOn.org, to the founder of Change.org, demanding that the website "Stop Supporting Union-Busters." Jones' letter has collected roughly 4,000 signatures.


Change.org Drops Michelle Rhee Group Under Pressure From Progressives.
