Show Notes

A Chicago charter school network found itself in such bad financial straits that it’s being forced to close the doors of its two high schools, for good.


That sent some 570 students searching for a new school with less than three months in the year.


It is an unprecedented situation not just for the students, but also for the schools charged with taking them in.
