The Chicago Teacher Strike
By Cheyenne Turner

      In Chicago 25,000 public school teachers went on strike. Teachers agreed they have failed to reach an agreement that will prevent a labor strike. Three days have gone by and a strike is still going on and the teachers are not getting their way and there refusing to teach there students and the halted class work and refused to work.
The union said they would meet Wednesday morning to review for a new proposal from the school board. Teachers and parents are lowering their expectations for an agreement and every ones main concern is the process in which teachers will be rehired.
My opinion is the teachers are doing the right thing because teachers and parents are really concerned about how their students and children aren’t getting the right education and they should be getting them the best education there is to prepare them for the future.
