Most certainly there are more children in that area that would go to the school if it was better, but not 1,000 of them. How about split this building into school and residential apartments.
600,000 —>312,000 is a stunning statistic. It would be interesting to chart that against the eroding student population, growth in charter school enrollment, growth in private & parochial school enrollment and growth in home schooling.
$93K/student is roughly double the annual tuition at some of our most elite private schools. It is scandal, an insult to common sense, and a squandered opportunity to do better for those students.
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson keeps talking about affordable housing, so here is his chance to shutter underutilized school buildings and have them converted to condos for area residents.
Closing Douglas would perhaps reflect math proficiency. But that cannot be tested in CPS because math skill is obviously just another legacy of white supremacy.

Let’s see. The people running Chicago are collectively and individually insane.

Math skills are widely tested at CPS, including at Douglass.
Widely tested but (apparently) seldom applied.
