(CHICAGO) — There is a new report out that claims the head of the Chicago Teachers Union is sending one of her children to a private school.
Chicago Teachers Union President Stacy Davis Gates, who in the past has opposed school choice, reportedly now sends one of her three children to a private high school in Chicago.
According to the Illinois Policy Institute report, Davis Gates’ child is listed on a private school athletic roster. The school’s principal declined comment and Davis Gates did not respond to IPI’s requests for comment.
IPI reports that Davis Gates previously stressed to Chicago Magazine the importance of someone in her role sending her kids to public school.
Several Illinois state government leaders also choose private schools for their children.
