Chicago teachers agree to resume in-person lessons

 


Chicago public schools are set to continue in-person classes after the city's teachers union backed a plan with the local school district to create new safety measures against the pandemic, ending a nearly week-long standoff.

 

The Chicago Teachers' Union (CTU) Board of Delegates voted to resume face-to-face learning Monday, suspending a labor dispute that has led teachers to refuse to give lessons in person starting last week. Under the new plan, schools will reopen on Wednesday.
