The House passes a bill to prevent the CPS board from shutting down any schools until the board becomes fully elected in 2027. Early today, CTU Pres. Stacy Davis Gates called the bill “racist.” Some HDems blast the comments #twill
How many migrant students are Chicago schools serving? It depends who you ask @sammie_smylie found. Collecting this data can be important for getting $ to the right places, but it's also hard b/c asking Qs abt immigration & home country can scare families chalkbeat.org/chicago/2024/0…
Chicago Public Schools estimates between 9,000 and 17,000 migrant students are enrolled, depending on the definition used to define who gets counted. @sammie_smylie @chalkbeatCHI chalkbeat.org/chicago/2024/0…
Rep. Croke changes selective enrollment closure moratorium bill to ban all Chicago public school closures until elected board is seated dlvr.it/T5dp76
.@ChiPubSchools may extend the moratorium on school closings until 2027 and a fully elected school board. Learn more from @chalkbeatCHI: chalkbeat.org/chicago/2024/0… What were some outcomes of the previous round of closings? Check out our research here: consortium.uchicago.edu/publications/s…
"Croke said district officials approached her about not extending the moratorium. 'They do have concerns about what their budget is going to look like and whether or not they’re going to start having conversations about some of the schools that they need to have consolidated.'"

Chicago Teachers Union reveals some key contract demands and asks to open up bargaining to the public @reemadamin @chalkbeatCHI chalkbeat.org/chicago/2024/0…
Chicago Public Schools saw an influx of federal COVID money during the pandemic to support programs. But as this funding gets phased out, schools are exploring what programs to prioritize. Read more in @chalkbeatCHI. chalkbeat.org/chicago/2024/0…
The @ctu wants to negotiate its next contract in the "front yard" rather than the "back room." Key to the negotiations: This time, the union will be bargaining with a mayor it spent heavily and fought hard to elect. More from @wttw's @ByMattMasterson: news.wttw.com/2024/04/16/chi…
The next three meetings this month will focus more on the daily school experience and funding, though parents also can share their thoughts about school choice. chalkbeat.org/chicago/2024/0…

This is not a pass for the company’s shortcomings, but it is a reminder: it is virtually impossible for NPR to be all the things all the people want it to be.
NPR is being asked to do something that almost no news organization can do in our divided political climate: make journalism for everyone, that also makes everyone happy.
I’ll say this a former NPR employee (13 years!): one of the hardest parts of being a public-facing journalist there is the brand itself. Preserving the brand, living up to the brand’s expectations, dealing w/EVERYONE’S opinions about what the brand should be. I don’t miss that!
@beckyvevea That’s just the morning coffee 🫢
lol hold on, so you're telling me that if I want to access testimony to Illinois state lawmakers, I have to either subscribe to a $150/month (at least) service OR I have to go to Springfield to pick up a *DVD* that has the recorded testimony?
This is a special tweet for city hall people. Here is George Blakemore singing and dancing.
Forgot to mention that I'm in Springfield for the day! Sitting in on a couple of education committee hearings to see what's going on.
My book is about more than Mayor Lori Lightfoot. It’s a look at how Chicago City Hall operates and the dynamics that animate our politics and government. Here’s a few of many aldermanic moments from “The City is Up for Grabs,” out now in bookstores everywhere
I think the most detrimental change to us over the past 20 years is that social media and partisan cable news have transformed us from generally curious people to generally furious people. Everyone thinks they’re an expert now and can’t wait to yell at you about it.

PSA, Fellow Bluey moms:
An immersive "Bluey" pop-up is coming to CAMP Chicago next month. buff.ly/49AtgEl
After two you're outnumbered. They could stage a coup.
This, apparently.
10:51 am: A college counselor texts me: “OMG FAFSA CORRECTIONS ARE POSSIBLE.” 11:53 am: The same counselor texts: “Ok now corrections are not available again. Cool cool cool.”
At this point (tho I am putting pressure), CPS is not releasing school budgets to the press so principals, LSC members, parents... help me out... what are you seeing in your schools... DM me!!!
I know a lot of people think NPR is 'more liberal' now. It's not my job to argue with that notion. What I can say is that I think the world - and America - are changing in fast, complicated ways that are often disorienting. I think a lot of our stories reflect this change. 7/
This story is the first school-by-school public accounting (that I'm aware of) of where nearly all COVID dollars went, which would have been *impossible* without our data editor. DATA JOURNALISTS FOREVER!
