Chicago runs the ISBE and they made elearning optional because of their own low expectations for CPS students. Then they tried muscling for more devices and free internet-even though there is already discount internet for welfare recipients
That's part of the problem with education in Illinois: Chicago runs it.
IL schools will be open in the fall though -- they need to federal money.
I've often wondered what happens to all those devices -- I have a hard time believing they're used for educational purposes...it might be something to investigate (not that any journalist would).
