School Tech Connect: Who Is Stealing Our Education? Find Out!:


Who Is Stealing Our Education? Find Out!

Busy times coming up--- between fighting off the bipartisan attack on the Illinois Constitution and the combating the highly politicized, shrouded-in-mystery school closing process here in the city, there's also a full schedule of unbelievably fabulous teach-ins scheduled here in Rogers Park.

Check out what Occupy Rogers Park has put together on the 2nd Saturday of each month from here through May.



There's nothing like a teach-in, and this series is the best I've seen in a long time. Tell your friends.
Here's a summary of the dates (Nevermind that the dates all say 2012--- It's this year. It's being fixed as we speak.)
