Chicago Loses 45,000 Public School Students Since 2003

The Chicago Tribune reports:
The Chicago Public Schools lost more than 45,000 students in the last five years, according to the state report card, and a city school spokeswoman said they've seen no "significant reversal of the downward trend."
Grim numbers here.It's good to know Mayor Daley wants to build new schools!
