Chicago Government Schools Exodus - CPS enrollment continues to plummet: ‘I would have never imagined seeing this steep of a decline’

Did JB Pritzker decide to not send his kids to Chicago government schools because he's a racist? The Chicago Tribune reports:
Chicago Public Schools enrollment has dropped again, this time to 330,411 students, about 10,000 fewer kids than last year, according to numbers the district released Wednesday. “When I was in CPS my first year, in 2003, we were just under 440,000 students. Even then I was seeing declines of about 3,000 students or so. I would have never imagined seeing this steep of a decline,” new CPS CEO Pedro Martinez told reporters.
Saying no to government schools with your feet.
