I’ll get to the TIFs in a minute, but first, a few words about the district’s priceless new infomercial, “CPS: Success Starts Here,” released just in time for the start of the school year.
They even use that uplifting background music to underscore the heartfelt testimonials of parents, students, and teachers—well, OK, one teacher. At the end, each person looks at the camera and declares: “I am CPS.”
Claypool: “We are here in the central office to support our principals and teachers who do the actual work in the classrooms.”
So it’s really not balanced at all. Meaning, we can expect more cuts as the year rolls on.
If so, I can relate.
