Show Notes
As Chicago Public Schools return for the 2025-2026 school year, major questions remain, like the future of the CPS budget gap, protections for immigrant students, and the relationship between the governor and district leaders. WBEZ Education reporter Sarah Karp and freelance journalist Brandon Pope are here to break down the pressing challenges facing CPS. Plus, the US attorney general increases threats towards Chicago, Chance drops his latest album Star Line, and we’ve got more pizza love to share.
