Chicago Teachers To Discuss New Offer Tuesday Afternoon

Oh yeah, and the city is asking a court Wednesday to order the teachers back to work

Chicago public schoolchildren will spend a seventh day out of classes Tuesday as their striking teachers weigh a tentative proposal to end their walkout.

School officials went to court Monday to ask a judge to declare the strike illegal and order the teachers back to work. A Cook County judge will hold a hearing on that request Wednesday.
