- About 300,000 students in Chicago will miss classes for an eighth day on Monday, as the teachers’ union and public school district failed over the weekend to resolve a deadlock in contract talks over class sizes, support staff levels and pay.

Mayor Lori Lightfoot and the Chicago Public Schools’ chief executive, Janice Jackson, blasted the Chicago Teachers Union in a joint news conference on Sunday for not accepting the school system’s offer. “Put bluntly, the deal that CPS is touting will not set an enforceable class size standard for all schools.”

But media, including the Chicago Times, said late on Sunday that 7,500 members of the Service Employees International Union would not cross the CTU picket lines. The terms of the SEIU agreement were not immediately available. It has lasted longer than walkouts elsewhere, except for a three-week strike by teachers in Union City, California in June.
