Chicago Charter School Teachers' Strike
---------------------------------------

In Chicago, over 500 teachers at the Acero charter school network have
gone on strike, calling for smaller class sizes, more special ed staff,
pay equity with Chicago Public Schools and protections for undocumented
students. It is believed to be the first strike at a U.S. charter
school.
