It's a hot day in Logan Square. We missed the art festival on the square this weekend, but it sounded like it was fun. I'm starting to think about next year, but I don't really want to acknowledge that next year will come.I'm grateful that I still have a job. I shouldn't be grateful that I have a job - I never considered that the board would slash jobs in a manner that would harm children, but I never though that Ron Huberman, an ex police officer with an MBA from the U. of C. (where slash-and-burn supply side economics arose from the dark heart of Milton Friedman), would become the leader of the third largest school district in the country.
Daley and Huberman do not believe in Public Education. Their goal is to slowly dole out the Chicago Public Schools to private entities so that eventually the board of education becomes an office in City hall whose only job is to count heads and cut checks to the various mini-districts that are taking over (being given away by) District 299. A brand new school was just given to AUSL, the proprietary mini-district run by National Louis University and some really rich guy - I guess Huberman decided that new school was doomed to fail from the get-go.
