Yeah, but this is about the chicago teachers. They were already overpaid!!!
Like I said earlier in this thread, those teachers already made more than
TWICE what the teachers make in the rest of the state. While making TWICE as much money they have
LESS THAN HALF as many students per teacher.
While you may feel sorry for them, no one else here in IL does. There was ZERO sympathy for them here in downstate IL, even with the union teachers we have. In fact, there was a lot of anger when some of them found out that after 5 years they were making 30K a year and those teachers were making about 75K with the same experience, and wanted a 17% raise, all the while having a 10:1 student to teacher ratio.
