A City That People Want To Move To And Raise Their Children










Question: Why can't every Chicago Public School student read and write at least at grade level?

Answer:  Because Chicago's Politicians, Chicago's business leaders, and Chicago's religious leaders have yet to make it a top priority.

Ensuring that every Chicago Public School student read and write at least at grade level will drastically reduce the crime in Chicago and help make Chicago a city that people want to move to and raise their children.
