Illinois State Representative Esther Golar (D-6th) member of the Chicago Facilities Task Force (CEFTF) warned Chicago Public Schools that the “Fight is On!” She was rebuking Hearing officer Fred Bates during the public hearing held on a Friday night 7:30pm February 3, 2012 at Chicago Board of Education headquarters in downtown, regarding the plan to "turnaround" Tilden High School on Chicago’s South Side. In a dramatic five-minute speech, Rep. Golar first challenges the hearing officer's version of reality, then goes on to describe the impact of CPS sabotage on Tilden over the years.
