TwilightTurtle+FollowField School’s Epic Comeback in AustinThe Field School is finally bringing all its K-8 students under one roof in Austin, filling the historic Francis Scott Key campus for the first time since 2013! After years of bouncing between locations, they’ve renovated the south building (peep those vintage pews and skyline gym views) and are making diversity and community a priority. Plus, half the seats are reserved for families below the poverty line. Grand opening’s August 16—this is a big win for the West Side! #Education #K12 #ChicagoSchools00Share
Charles Richardson+FollowCPS Layoffs: Who’s Really Getting Cut?Chicago Public Schools just dropped a bombshell: 160+ employees are getting laid off, and 200 vacant jobs are gone too—all to plug a $730 million budget hole (way bigger than they first said). Most cuts hit central office and crossing guards, not teachers in schools. Unions are fired up, saying student safety is at risk and demanding CPS protect workers. More layoffs could hit schools in July. Is this the right move, or should CPS cut elsewhere? #Education #ChicagoSchools #CPSLayoffs00Share
