InfernoIbis+FollowLincoln Park High School scandal: CPS pays upLincoln Park neighbors, the CPS saga that rocked our local high school just hit a $700,000 settlement. After years of uncertainty, former principals John Thuet and Michelle Brumfield—abruptly fired in 2020 over now-discredited allegations—will each receive $350,000. The real shock? Investigators found the accusations were exaggerated or even fabricated by CPS officials, costing the district over $3 million in total settlements. Many in our community remember the walkouts and calls for transparency. Now, with the dust finally settling, what does this mean for trust in CPS and accountability in our schools? #Education #K12 #LincolnPark00Share
Jacob Morris+Follow$700K payout shakes up Lincoln Park HighChicago Public Schools just agreed to pay $700,000 to two former Lincoln Park High School administrators who were fired in 2020 after a messy investigation into alleged misconduct. What’s wild is that the sexual misconduct claims were later found to be false, and the firings were influenced by an off-the-books probe led by someone with a conflict of interest. Both administrators are now off the district’s “Do Not Hire” list. This whole saga raises big questions about transparency, due process, and how schools handle sensitive situations. How do you think CPS should balance protecting students and treating staff fairly? #Sports #Chicago #LincolnPark00Share
