Welcome to Teachers Speak Up

This blog is meant to inform the public about the successes and challenges that teachers experience in their classrooms. Too often policies about education are made without the public or officials fully understanding what's needed to support and improve teaching and learning. So we will gather interesting stories and essays from teachers around the Chicago metro area and share them here. Watch for the first of these tomorrow - Friday, May 31.

We’ve removed the ability to reply as we work to make improvements. Learn more here
