Teachers Union To Vote On Remote Learning Amid COVID Surge
Eighteen percent of students who were able to be tested were positive for the virus before returning to school.
CHICAGO (CBS) — On Monday, the very day Chicago Public Schools kids returned to school after winter break, there was a threat that they may go back to remote learning.
The executive board – the highest governing body of the Chicago Teachers Union – was set to meet Monday night. They will be voting to see if the issue of remote learning should be sent to the House of Delegates for a vote on Tuesday.“My question to the mayor and CPS is simple – what will it take to shut down a school building when COVID is running rampant?” said CTU delegate Briana Hambright-Hall.
