Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I so wish I was at least 30-years younger and could be in Chicago to help you. It is so refreshing to see people getting together to do positive things to throw in the faces of these phoney bureaucrats and pernicious politicians and greedy Edubusinesses. Stick with those who understand what children need to know about building a new world with their fellow students and reject, reject all this Grit, Tenacity and Perseverance BS being created to make their generation into the most competitive yet. Take your children out into the city and show them the history of the schools that were closed and how important they were to the development of the citys commerce. Dont let them break the social contracts that thepast government and business leaders created to build the city. Who says they have to live according to the mold of the Economic Man. Build cells of resistance. If over 50% of you have the courage to design curriculum and teach this way, they will not be able to ignore it. Take the struggle to the streets if that is what they want to do. Their way is wrong. Their ways have brought us to the end of disaster. Their ways have made us into wage-slaves and caused us to accept (more relish) the the thought that our successes must leave a trail of broken-hearted academic and career misfits. There are no misfits. We are all humans with the same right to live self-satisfying and community rich lives. Please see my post (in Az Parents & Teachers Against CCS ... and elsewhere about the brewing crisis in the Australian system over the perceived need to replace existing classes with an intense computer-programming curriculum in order to not be left behind economical in the coming generation. Stop complaining and expecting the government to come rescue you because you know what is best for children; simply do what is right for them. Thank you CHICAGO!
