Status: Awaiting Briefing

Posted: November 18th, 2011

Submission from the public:

“It was recently announced that NOT A SINGLE SCHOOL within the Pantagraph circulation area met the established 11th grade educational requirements. The number of schools in IL that did is less than 10. It’s a mulch-faceted problem, no doubt, but there are specific areas about which this group could ponder. Specifically, I’d like to know how we can create buy-in from teacher’s unions to make significant changes to the status quo regarding compensation, teaching methods and communication between parent, student and teacher.”
