Like many parents with children in the Evanston school systems, I have met many excellent teachers. However, I was also privy to many conversations with other parents about teachers to avoid and indeed, met teachers I felt should've retired or sought another career.
The subject of teacher tenure has been raised by J.B. Rees and nationally has been a Republican issue. I support labor in general, but I feel somewhat conflicted about tenure's local impact upon my children.
What are other Evanstonians opinions about this issue?

Good Afternoon,
The 6th Ward has experienced three (3) Confidence Scams over the past 30 days. These scams are typically referred to as ‘Gypsy Scams’ and involve multiple subjects who present trumped up stories which would cause one of them to distract a victim while another subject enters your home to steal small/loose items (normally money, jewelry, and electronics).
