CPS parent reacts to May 1 drama| The Chicago Report
After a lot of back and forth, Chicago Public School leaders and the teachers union have agreed school will be in session on May 1. But there's a catch. Starting at 1 p.m. CPS will provide about 100 buses and students will have an excused absence for the afternoon if they want to be chaperoned and attend the May Day protests. They have to get a permission slip. No student will be retaliated against if they choose to stay in school and not attend. Brittany Preston is a CPS parent. She has 4 children in the district, and she's here to weigh in.
