The CTU continues to prioritize left-wing politics over learning, acquiring knowledge, critical thinking and problem-solving skills
Chicago parents expect Chicago Public Schools educators to teach reading, writing, and critical thinking skills — not to use classrooms as staging grounds for foreign and domestic political activism.
Yet, that’s exactly what happened when union-backed activists used taxpayer-funded schools to promote protests tied to Venezuela, all while displaying a poster that misspelled the word “governor” as “governer.” This gaffe would be funny if it weren’t so alarming.
This wasn’t a typographical error scribbled by a student in a rush. It was part of a professionally organized political display, endorsed by the same education establishment — the Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) — that insists it knows what’s best for America’s children.
