Chico: Build arenas for large high school crowds
Chicago Public Schools should build two or three premier “competition centers” around the city where high school athletes could showcase their talents, mayoral challenger Gery Chico said Friday.
A former school board president, Chico has already vowed to insulate sports programs from budget cuts.
If elected mayor, Chico said he would also examine the need to renovate and expand high school football stadiums, arguing that those facilities “need attention.”
That's right folks. Let's waste more of your money on under achieving students so this idiot will get THEIR vote.
Why not at least try and educate these students first before bribing them into being good, Chico.
Candidate Miguel del Valle also appeared at the forum and talked about the need for Chicago Public Schools to restore recess and lengthen the 20-minute period set aside for lunch.
“It is inhumane that we give children 20 minutes for lunch in our schools. That is wrong. How can we talk to children about nutrition and what they eat, then say to them, ‘You’ve got to gobble it down in ten minutes,’” said del Valle, who recalled getting an hour for lunch when he was in school.
Asked what classes he would cut to lengthen lunch periods and restore recess, del Valle said none. Instead, he would lengthen the school day and try to get the federal government to pay for it.
This idiot wants to give students a 60 minute fiesta, 5 days a week, at YOUR expense. Federal funds means all taxpayers will be paying for his party!
And when HE was in school, our country wasn't filled with millions and millions of Latin American children who are here illegally but feeding off of the American system that is already broke!
If you need one hour to feed those Latinos, you'll need 8 hours of exercise to remove the fat they just put on.
