Kevin Moore, a high school history teacher at George Washington High School, explains what’s at stake:
His school is facing the potential loss of up to 28 positions, nearly one-third of the staff, and almost $2 million in cuts.
And it’s completely avoidable.
Across the 10th Ward,hundreds of school jobs could disappear, gutting classrooms and destabilizing school communities that already deserve more, not less.
Ald. Peter Chico voted NO on the Protecting Chicago Budget.
The Mayor’s budget proposal provides a historic $1 billion TIF surplus to invest in our schools, libraries and parks. Now, City Council needs to step up and fulfill its end of the bargain.
Vote YES on the Protecting Chicago Budget. Our students cannot afford these cuts.
