Mayor Johnson Says The Way To Grade Chicago Schools Is 'How Much Money We Given Them'
• Wirepoints"As a former educator and longtime employee of the Chicago teachers union, what grade would you give the current system and why?"
That question was put to Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson during his appearance Thursday night at the Economic Club of Chicago.
His answer: "I personally don't give a lot of attention to grades…. My responsibility is not merely to just grade the system but to fund the system. That's how I am ultimately going to grade whether our public school system is working — based upon the investments we make to the people who rely on it."
He offered nothing further about how to grade the schools or educational outcomes.
