Townhall Meeting on CPS Proposed Longer Day

Thursday, Feb. 2 from 6:00 to 7:30 pm

Mt. Greenwood Library

You are invited to a townhall meeting on the controversial plan to lengthen the CPS school day.

Jesse Sharkey from the CTU will answer your questions on the proposed longer day and longer year, and how it compares with the current school day.

CPS will not confirm this, but there is talk that the school year will begin mid-August, and there is talk that Chicago Park District programs will be rescheduled to start later as a result of the longer day.

Petitions will be available to sign.
