Schools in Session, For real This time.

Yesterday was the final straw for the  seven day strike that had been taken place in several schools in the Chicago area. Teachers decided that they couldn't solve every problem out there, and that it was time to go home. The issue with the contract that was proposed this year was that teachers were too closely tied to their students in a way that if a student was failing a lot or happened to drop out, the teacher would take the fall and had a huge possibility of being fired. And the outside factors of why a student was failing or dropping out would be ignored. Although the teachers were just trying to make things more fair, it inconvenienced hundreds of family's that need to find sitters for there children, or even take them to work with them. Though there were other schools that were open for shot periods of time for meals and activities, that still left the rest of the day for the children with nothing to do. With school starting again, many students, teachers and parents are ready to get their routines going and back on track after an extra week of summer.
