Abstract

The article discusses the economic conditions of the public school districts of Chicago, Illinois and examines how a plan for teachers' contracts signed by the Chicago Teachers Union (CTU), aimed at ending a week-long strike in 2012, failed to address long-term financial problems within the district. Issues including education budget cuts, school closures, and educational accountability are discussed and an outline of the proposed CTU teachers' contract is provided. INSET: OUTLINE OF THE DEAL.
