This Wednesday, the Chicago Board of Education is set to vote on closing sixteen more public schools that serve low income and minority communities.

Despite six schools being taken off of the "hit list" late Monday evening, the Grassroots Education Movement is not backing down until all schools remain open.

Join thousands of teachers at 3:30 at 125 South Clark for a massive rally to send the message to Mayor Daley's appointed board that our schools are not open to privatization.

Please note that even though the board is expected to vote to close the schools despite public outcry, the struggle will not be over until Renaissance 2010 is turned around and our schools, students and teachers get the resources they deserve.
