Mixed feelings for parents, students as they wait and see if there will be a strike or a deal

Tyler LaRiviere/Sun-Times
With a teachers strike looming that could further impact her kids’ education, Mary Clare Maxwell is left shaking her head at both Chicago Public Schools leaders and Chicago Teachers Union officials for their inability to strike a deal.
“I don’t have time for all the details,” Maxwell, who has two daughters in public schools, said about parsing inconsistent messages from each side about how negotiations are going.
“Part of me just wants to say: ‘The adults need to get in the room and figure it out and move forward, and stop the bickering because no one is benefiting from the bickering,’” said Maxwell, 47, who lives in the West Loop and has two daughters in public schools.
