Is this a work around to promoting and graduating students who would otherwise be failing "becasue covid" ? The long term ramifications are scary

In the real world, when the boss tells you, you're not working remote..... you aren't working remote.

Over 86% of the Chicago teachers are vaccinated, yet they are afraid to return to work, doesn't say much for their faith in the vaccines!

Is Chicago a part of the "real" world anymore?

I say, give vouchers to all of the students along with a computer and save money by closing their schools! It would be much safer for the students, and those teachers would have no more worries about going to the classroom!

Chicago was a horribly dangerous person when I was a kid, more than 6 decades ago. I cannot imagine what it is like now.

This has almost nothing to do with safety or protecting the children. This is all about the teachers union pushing an agenda.

How pathetic.

They just want to stay home and save the time and money involved in commuting.

I can't blame them for that, but their job is not conducive for that so they're putting themselves first and the students second.

It's truly pathetic seeing some of the replies here. It's almost like they are begging for teacher's being forced to be fire due to simply worrying about their health. And for no reason, these teacher's decisions won't effect them in the slightest.

The one's wanting the teachers to be fired have collective mindset and the propaganda has worked 100% on them as they question nothing the talking heads (Fox News/Conservative government).

Humans are a terrible bunch and the ugliness is showing it's head these past 2 years.

Kids need schooling, in person, and parents need to be able to work rather than being babysitters.

CLEAN HOUSE.

My thoughts exactly. FIRE THEM ALL, the ones who voted to stay home. Illegal.

My second thought was, remember Ronald Wilson Reagan and the Air Traffic Controllers? He solved that overnight. Their strike was also illegal, and he s-canned the lot of them.

Problem solved.

You know what? My wife is medical field and has been going to work, for TWO YEARS through this thing, and not complaining about it. She is doing the job she was hired to do.

Do you want to shut down the entire country again?
