Chicago Teachers Union rushes to end charter school strike as new struggles develop
After only two days, the Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) is rushing to end the strike by 34 teachers at Urban Prep Academies in Chicago, announcing Wednesday that they had reached a tentative agreement with the network of charter schools. The tentative agreement (TA) is said to be for three years, with a reopening of the deal next summer, while the date when teachers will vote on the agreement has not been reported.

Chicago Tribune noting, “Neither side has provided details on what the tentative contract provides in pay and benefits.” ....

On Sunday, the Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) announced that a tentative agreement with Chicago Public Schools (CPS) was ratified by by union members by an 83 to 17 percent margin, paving the way for Chicago high schools to reopen for in-person classes today.

The current rolling average positivity rate in Chicago is 5.6 percent, according to the Chicago Department of Public Health (CDPH). In February, when the CTU and CPS agreed to reopen classes up to the eighth grade, the rolling average positivity rate in Chicago was around 3.6 percent. ....

T
he Chicago Educators Rank-and-File Safety Committee fights to unite educators, parents, students and the broader working class in order to close all schools and nonessential workplaces. We call on all Chicago educators, parents and students to join our committee today!
The leadership of the Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) called for high school educators to work remotely on Wednesday in order to pressure Chicago Public Schools (CPS) into finalizing an agreement on a reopening plan. Far from putting a stop to the dangerous reopening of high schools, the CTU is trying to position its demands as the means to convince reluctant parents, currently the majority, to send their children back to school buildings. ....

As COVID-19 cases rise in the Midwest, with the most alarming spike in Michigan, the seven-day average COVID-19 positivity rate in the city of Chicago has once again climbed to 5.4 percent. Genetic testing indicates the latest surge is being driven by the B.1.1.7 variant, which is estimated to be 50 percent more transmissible than the wild-type of the virus. As a result of the surge in cases, hospital admissions in the state of Illinois began to tick up last week.
On Thursday, Chicago Department of Public Health Commissioner Dr. Alison Arwady said, “We cannot be letting down our guard yet. At an individual level, it is high risk right now to be out and about and gathering in Chicago. Why are these cases on the rise? Honestly, they’re on the rise because people are feeling like we’re done with COVID and they are just staying home a lot less.” ....
