Around 350,000 Chicago schoolchildren were locked out of the classroom on Tuesday as 29,000 teachers began striking on Monday. Chicago’s school board and teachers’ union failed to come to an agreement Monday, with two sides deadlocked over several key points of contention, including the hot-button national issues of teacher evaluations and recall policy. Chicago’s Mayor Rahm Emanuel on Monday said he didn’t give “two hoots” about Mitt Romney’s opinion after the Republican presidential campaign accused President Obama of putting the interests of organized labor over the students.
