"An internal Chicago Public Schools document obtained by the Tribune shows for the first time that the Emanuel administration has weighed how many elementary and high schools to close in which neighborhoods and how to manage the public fallout. The "working draft" lays out the costs and benefits of specific scenarios- revealing that the administration has gone further down the path of determining what schools to target than it has disclosed" (Chgo Tribune, Dec. 19, 2012).
Most of the schools are in Black and Latino neighborhoods
Contact your state legislator now and tell them to stop the madness of discrimination against children of color in the Chicago Public Schools.
Tell them to stop any school closures
Tell them it is their job to keep our children out of strange neighborhoods, creating more violence
Tell them that the so called Commission created by CPS and the hearings they held were both unsatisfactory
