    Classes have been canceled in the Chicago school district for a second straight day, affecting roughly 350,000 students. The shutdown comes as the district tries to hammer out a deal with the teachers union over COVID-19 safety protocols.http://apne.ws/YXip56h

        Do they not understand that most parents actually like their kids? Unlike politicians who frequently think of them as pawns with no value? After all rich kids go to private school.

        it's gonna be 19 degrees in the Windy City on thurs, btw maybe it's not the worst thing in the world for students to avoid going out in a worsening pandemic in frigid temps, i dunno, it's only their lives

        Are there protocols that stop it? Nothing has so far. Anywhere.

        Replying to @AP @MikeLohr7

        But they already hammered out a deal. The deal said they'd close the schools if certain metrics are met. Those metrics have been met. What you really mean is Chicago is trying to force teachers to return to schools in violation of the contract.

        Well @CTULocal1, all the harmful effects of school closures on the city's most vulnerable youth is now offically on you. As the city deals with a crisis in crime & gang activity, and schools with record low attendance at least you can say you caught Lightfoot being insincere 🙄

        Teachers are tired of dying because they came to work. Take prudent steps to make it safe and they will return.

        It’s only about money. How can they survive with their average $72,000 a year pension?
