They’re not getting into fights because the school is underfunded

As someone who lives in the northern suburbs of Chicago and sends my son to a rated 10 middle school I fully support having all tax dollars in one pot and then equally distributed among all schools. My son is one of the only black kids at his school and it presents its own challenges.

It's not that the city is segregated. That IS a problem, but the problem is how we fund education. Property taxes isn't enough to make up for the under served and funded parts of the city and even the suburbs. Your zipcode shouldn't be indicative of the quality of education.

I attended Chicago Public Schools and was the first in my family to graduate college (first-gen, too). The system is designed in ways that often keeps folks exactly where we start, both educationally and socioeconomically. The idea that one can simply pull themselves up by their bootstraps ignores how access, exposure and social capital shape what people can even imagine for themselves. Had I not been exposed to life outside of my neighborhood, I would not have known what was possible, let alone what to strive for. That is a predictable outcome of a deeply segregated system

They are not underfunded, CPS has some of the highest per capita spends. The $$$ unfortunately isn’t actually spent on education delivery

kids can't focus on education when they fear for their lives walking to school and are hungry at home.

As someone from the West Side of Chicago who came from nothing, I’ve lived these inequalities and injustices firsthand. It’s interesting how many people only begin to recognize them once they start working in these neighborhoods. It makes you wonder were they unaware before, or did it simply not affect them enough to notice?

Painful truth from a lifetime (63 years) in Chicago. Not much has changed.

The construction of I-90 destroyed a lot of great minority neighborhoods as well. The city has a lot of painful history and still has a lot of pain but the city also has a lot of strength within. I love Chicago, faults and all.

When my kids were in elementary school on the NW side, parent fundraisers contributed in excess of 100K every year to the school budget. That's what paid for Arts programs. The playground got matching funds, so its quality was also directly related to what the parents kicked in first.

Thank you for recognizing this. Some of us that made it out closed that disparity by joining the military.
