Some teachers urged students to get involved in the community issue over a disposal plant being built and the teachers were reported.

Chicago mayors.

That's good, though

You didn't read that article, did you?

1. It wasn't Lightfoot's decision to make; it was the Board of Education
2. Lightfoot in it is accused of retaliating against the teachers for opposing the project, which she was on board with until it became politically untenable, and for which her administration was accused by the feds of environmental racism:

CPS officials recommended firing the two for repeated instances of poor judgment and bias in their instructional roles and in their faculty adviser roles. A more than 400-page report outlined the accusations, though that document wasnt made public.
Chicago Teachers Union officials said Bianchi and Stark were targeted by Lightfoot for embarrassing her.
Let me be clear this is retaliation, CTU President Stacy Davis Gates said at a rally in support of the teachers Wednesday. This is retaliation because we have two educators who stood in lockstep with their students, their families and their communities to challenge the racism.

You appear to be oblivious of the fact that CPS board is not elected but appointed by Mayor of Chicago.

CE never cares about issues.
