Chicago has again put off the plan to bring students back to classrooms as the nation’s third largest public school district failed to reach an agreement with its teachers’ union to reopen schools that have been closed for almost a year.
In a statement posted on Twitter late Wednesday evening, Chicago Public Schools (CPS) told the families of nearly 70,000 K-8 students that they would have to continue remote learning at home on Thursday. Friday is already scheduled as a no-school day, which means students won’t be able to learn in-person until at least next Monday.
