Chicago's first teacher strike in 25 years came to an end Tuesday after more than a week of discussions and rallies that had parents scrambling to find alternative care for their children.

The Chicago Teachers Union's House of Delegates—nearly 800 members—voted to end the strike during a meeting at Operating Engineers Hall, at 2260 Grove Street, on the city's south side.
