Congratz on becoming a physics teacher! Good luck finding a decent paying job in Chicago, it'll probably be rough.

Yeah, I didn't mean to sound like I'm minimizing th CPS, I guess I am just used to everything being above average. Also, didn't realize you're west of me, I thought you were west of the city. I do realize that it does depend on the area, some parts of the south side are not as wealthy and privileged as other areas, and I just clumped everyone into one group when really there are a lot of different groups. And yeah, I definitely don't know as much as you, and I apologize if I'm sounding like I'm a know it all and what not, cause I'm not. Anyway, congratulations on becoming a certified physics teacher, and hopefully you find a cool place to work next year.

@PeterPan Find me a Chicago school that had a school shooting...
@DANGUSDEAN I don't mean to belittle you. To be completely honest, I thought the exact same way you did a year ago. I went to a middle class high school and even that was WAY above what I saw at CPS. The school system is super complex, and 95% of people don't realize it. That's why people are so upset that Betsy Devos became the Sec. of Education. She knows next to nothing about public education.
CPS schools can be HUGELY different, and sometimes they might be in a really shitty area but be really good schools. Lindblom High School is a great example. Its in Englewood, one of the worst neighborhoods of Chicago, yet the school is one of the top schools in the state, mostly due to the fact that it is selective enrollment.
One of the reasons I want to work in a suburban rich school is to enlighten the "upper class" about how lucky they are and the problems we have in our society that they would never see but should be aware of.
