Chicago teachers say they were told to give migrant students passing grades

- In the last few years, a number of undocumented immigrants have entered the U.S. from the southern border. States like Texas have sent busloads of migrants to cities and states with more immigrant-friendly policies. Chicago, Illinois, was one of those cities.
Since Texas started bussing migrants there in 2022, more than 50,000 migrants have been brought to the city, with many choosing to stay there. Now, Chicago Public Schools (CPS) teachers say they were told by administrators to give migrant students passing grades.
The teachers told WGN Radio they do not speak Spanish, and the students often did not speak English, making communication all but impossible. They also said many schools do not offer any English as a second language (ESL) support.
Despite that, Chicago teachers say they were instructed to give every migrant student a 70% in every subject so they could move on to the next grade.
Before Chicago Public Schools was aware teachers had talked to WGN, a spokesperson told the local station CPS held migrant students to the same academic standards as everyone else. However, after the report came out, CPS said its guidelines for promoting students to the next grade are “modified to serve the special needs of English language learners.”
WGN said a CPS representative has stated that the district could not check whether the teachers’ claims were true because the names of the students, schools and teachers were not given.

The dumbing down of America
It all started in the 60s.
@@jcbell-dh1bm yeah with Kennedy
No it's not its pushing illegals ahead of American children. That's what's happening.
all part of the zionist plan
NOPE >> ( JOHNSON )@@jonesy4588
Our govt has been chipping away at education for decades. An ignorant population unable to reason so much easier to divide and control...
Blame teacher unions
It started with Phonics. You can say a word, and have no idea what it means.
Public education has been a joke for quite some time.
Private school is producing geniuses? The illegal kids are going to the same warehouse as your kids
Especially the teachers unions.
@@WesWhaley-tw5ms I wonder how much ideology is forced on the teachers and through them the students through these organizations.
why are they even in school here , they pay no school taxes
Go ask Joe and Kamala.
The school gets money for each student to pay salaries, etc.
So that's why the country is broke,@@danschwartz1950
BIDEN😮
but you do
They've been passing kids in school with bad grades for awhile now. That's one of the main problems with academics in the US.
For 20 + years now.
My cousins kid who is 28 now was horrible. They passed him along like a joint! 😂
He’s now in prison.
@@GfysimpletonsWhy is he in prison? And that’s not a laughing matter. 😢
Yup. I went to a real ghetto transfer school and the teachers literally said “we will give you straight 100s if you just show up”. I was the only white there.
@@licorice5001 because he’s a garbage person.
True that I was 1 one I hated school ruined my social skills I knew I wasn't smart wasn't untill I dropped out got a job that paid 15 an hour in 2010 I was realizing during that time I was making more money than my college graduate peers no debt nothing now I make 25 an hour doing the same thanks to trump my bosses even said thank trump for my raises 😂 I am 33 single no children been keeping that way and staying that way imo "family is slavery" no benefit no offense btw I am not a human hater either I grew up in poverty I seen what it can do beside I love my cousins booze and weed not worth given up I will donate my assets to all the boys in my local foster care when I pass away I have a good amount but right now I am just enjoying my time here in Peace I will have co workers over and their families feed them for free I give out presents to co workers for they family for example I gave out the new PS5 to a co worker I knew who was broke for Christmas 1000 dollars along with it idk that's how I was
America's RACE to the bottom.
Been done for years. My junior and senior years in high school were ruined by "diversity efforts", and "minority" students were advanced so the school wouldn't lose funding. The year was 1991.
I literally Christmas treed all of my end of year test and got a 75 2017
Send everyone a property tax refund
Completely agree with you.
The corruption is disgusting
Anybody Surprised?
When I taught in Hawaii, we were not allowed to give a grade lower than a "C".
In fact, D and F were not even in our grade scale.
Thank God I'm retired.
Here’s a chilling truth: schools rake in three times the funding for every non-English speaking student they enroll. But here’s where it gets dark-if a student fails, the school faces a devastating penalty, losing 60 times that amount in funding for just one failure.
The federal grant system is a minefield, filled with carefully placed traps, designed to bleed schools dry if they stumble. Districts are walking a tightrope, caught in a game where the stakes are dangerously high-and failure is costly.
Let that sink in… 😮
It's not even just migrant students; students all over the country are being passed on anyway.
I was an adjunct professor at a law school and I was instructed to curve the grades of minority students and not white students. When I objected, I was not rehired for the next semester.
Disgusting behavior for a civilized beautiful rich country
@@robertsantiago953 Not the country but some of the people in it, the Left.
So sorry to hear that about your job. Saddening when one has to choose(or wrongfully pay) in their beliefs at their job and with society.
Curve the white kids grades! Not the minority’s!
Sounds like a pure case of racism on your behalf lower the standards we're just about there being a third world dump anyways what's the difference just think what they do if people want to study medicine😂
Thousands? Try MILLIONS!
The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.
George Orwell, 1984
Same agencies instructing on how to apply for drivers license and how to vote legally by those who are here illegally.
This is why most college students can not read or write or show you where Washington DC is on a map.
My parents immigrated to the USA in the 50s and didn’t speak a lick of English. There was no English as a second language BS. Full immersion and they learned quickly and became productive members of society. This woke political correct BS is just that, BS.
If THATS The Case….
Then WHY Are Kids Going To School At ALL THEN !!???!!😡😡
This administration is a disgrace
Future lawyers and doctors...
Dishwashers and janitors
They do the same to American students , that is why Chicago is subpar in every subject city wide .
Not new. Teachers have been pressured for years. Good gosh, I'm going to catch some flak for this, but Special Education students have been placed in classes and passed that they had no business being in.
Is diversity a strength yet?
Are w people immigrants the answer is yes.
Who is making these insane policies
Democrats !
@@prettyflower8577 Get clue please. Divide and conquer, both parties involved.
NAACP😊
Buttsex Mafia
The Dummocrats😂
So...the schools discriminated against the citizen...English speaking students.
Everybody gets her participation award
Ignorance is bliss until consequences arise
This is normal, like in Baltimore a highschool passed a student that only ever attended school a grand total of 40 days in 4 years.
inner city no doubt...
BaltCongo!!! 😂😂😂
@@jasonandersen1562 Keep Africa out of it - you have no idea what happens here. The children here in Eswatini WALK to school up to 20 km in the morning rain or shine. More than 90% have nothing to eat for the 8 hours they attend classes. And they do that 6 days a week....
They'll blame money, but Baltimore public schools get some of the highest amounts per student in the country. Given that many so called students don't even show up where exactly is that money going? The education system has a lot to answer for.
@@jeansullivan3869 Hmmm I wonder if there is a single country in the entire world where corruption does not exist? Thanks for the insight into the USA metrics.
This explains a lot. I worked hard for my grades, got a BBA and did notice people graduating that I knew had been struggling. This was in the early 90s.
This was done in the 70's, but substitute "migrant" for "football player".
There's still college football players that no way in hell did they pass high school or SAT. They can't read or even make a coherent sentence.
At least the football players were americans
they still do that my dumb as rocks school mate corey Coleman was passed regardless of having a 30 in chemistry
@@Hawken707to be fair thats 50/50 with the 2nd half being sports related concussions.
Public schools especially CPS which is controlled by the CTU hasn’t been about educating for decades, it’s about providing salaries for political activists in exchange for votes and one way to do that is to pass as many as possible. This is why school choice is so important, let the ignorant keep their kids in public schools and the intelligent make the proper choice for their children.
And ignore the killing by Americans every day aswell😮
While American children suffer and left behind. Thanks to Democrat party policies.
Sure,why not?Follows everything else that's screwed up.
Test before hire.
The public education system has been pushing unqualified kids through to graduation for quite a while now. Sadly, this is not that much of a shocker, nor anomaly.
True enough, I graduated high school with classmates that were functionally illiterate in the 80s. And these was not an underfunded school in the inner city, this was suburban Connecticut.
I wonder if they need to pass any of the standard tests. They might graduate high school without knowing how to read and still not speak English.
And they can suffer the consequences.
Nothing new, they’ve been doing this for decades.
This is another reason why we will defund all American Taxpayer funded public education.
Another case of DEI, didn’t earn it!
I am so disgusted with this issue already. Most Americans have reached their end.
Why not they do it for all students. Go teachers union.🦇
Same thing happening in Colorado.
Welcome to tomorrow !!!
That's more ignorance.
Passing them without educating them will end up a total disaster, not to mention how wrong on so many levels this will be. 😮
Of course they were.
Teachers pathetic
And only now someones blowing the whistle
They give ALL kids a passing grade and "a participation trophy!" Why do you think we're 30 SOMETHING IN THE WORLD IN EDUCATION?!
And yet teachers still act like they deserve respect and that teaching is a profession. 😂😂😂😂😂
This is nothing new, can't make an old situation new.
Geez, this administration is really screwed up!
I would never send a child through the public system..it just dumbs children down...
Told to give migrant students passing grades. How nice. Wouldn’t want to make them feel bad, now would we?
Do not do it.Give after school lessons.
This is nothing new! The system passes 30% of students that are failing they have a quota which is why America failing 😢😢😢😢😢
As I loathe what Abbot did, I understand!
The old saying, gotta break a few eggs to make an omelette, is apropos…
Blame the migrants.
@@NIcholasparker88 Mind you, I didn’t say I loathe Abbot, just what he did.
I blame our current administration.
If ya leave food out the raccoons will come! Can’t blame them, 👉🏻just pea brained animals👈🏻you know what I mean.
A few years back, I was pressured to pass two boys from Peru. They couldn't speak a lick of English.
Matter of time.
Its called favoritism. If those who come here the right ways can learn it so can they
This is why children dont get good education.
social autocracy.
DISGUSTING!
A failing America.
AFFIRMATIVE ACTION STILL ALIVE AND KICKING
Of course they were! Special treatment for all those who have invaded our country!!
I entered the Chicago public school system in 1958. Did not speak English because my parents were LEGAL migrants and we spoke our foreign language at home. They told me listen carefully to your teachers. And that's how I learned to speak English along with television and friends on the block. So I don't feel sorry for the illegals.
DEI in action
Because that will help them. 🙄
*C- is what ‘modified’ grades are. The way to prove the teachers are telling the truth is to compare the final grades entered into the students’ cumulative folders to their scores on state testing scores. For example, folder has *C- in math yet state test will be Far Below Basic (F as in Failure) Ds are considered passing too and Below Basic on the state test. What they are doing to children is cruel by moving them on to the next grade. One year we teachers were told, “Ready, Fire, Aim, have a great school year!” Needless to say, we sat there stunned and our jaws were on the floor.
Defund the federal education system. Give the money and power back to the people
And they want a raise for that
So if you speak English your standards are normal you must do the work to pass, but if I’m here illegally I get my grades for free , one of the many reasons I’m glad I don’t teach anymore.
I suggest to all normal ppl to save as much as the can and leave states that playing these stupid games
How about the teacher saying no, I’m not going to pass a student unless they’re properly educated, because I’m an educator and have integrity.
When online like on Facebook they can speak it just fine online. But moment there here illegally its me no speaking English an must kiss my ass now. Or else
Give,stop selling us out! Chicago stand up for yourselves!❤️🙏🇺🇸
So ridiculous
We're doomed!
Just pull the grade cards of everyone with a Spanish speaking name and compare to see how many have. 70% grade…
This is stupid. They are still not learning anything. Unbelievable!!!
WHY ARE THEY EVEN ALLOWED TO BE AMONGST OUR CHILDREN?
Free transportation, free food, free cash, free housing, and free grade! Dream come true
Ridiculous. Thanks for reporting this.
They were told by "administrators"?
I WOULDNT BE SURPRISED IF THOSE POOR KIDS R WORKING AS WELL RIGHT NEXT TO THERE FAMILIES
I believe that is happening in Georgia! My child brought home test grades from another student that is Spanish and she got a complete 0’s on all test and she has passed up to second grade! My daughter said she barely speaks English!
This is Insane!!! It had me wondering all ready smh!
Well that's a BS (DEI) "Administration" policy.
Corruption abounds!!! 😡
If this is true, everyone is being done a great injustice.
Omg, why send them to school. , why not just give passing grade card.
This betrays the migrant student actually.
They will "give" them guns too
The ever cheating democrat.
This is just baby sitting, not an education
You can thank the useless Department of Education!
Why would you invite them here without having this all in place
How can you learn ANYTHING if you don’t speeki engli?
Same thing happening in DE schools too...
