Chicago Teachers Union Prez Says Testing Is 'White Supremacy' When Asked Why Students Are Failing
Posted • August 11, 2024: Since 2012, spending for Chicago Public Schools has increased 97% and the district now spends a whopping $29,028 per student. Despite the massive amounts of money being pumped into the system, test scores and proficiency levels in reading and math have plummeted like a stone. The district is spending $29,028 per student in the current school year—a 97 percent increase since 2012, according to a recent analysis by Illinois Policy.

While only 21% of students can read at grade level. Now here's the president of the Chicago Teachers Union not taking responsibility for the abject failures of CPS, but blaming testing. Because it's racist. Chicago Teachers Union president Stacy Davis Gates says testing is "junk science rooted in white supremacy" and "born out of eugenics." She was responding to this radio host asking her about Chicago Public Schools spending a ton of money and still failing children. (…)
