CPS is failing its Hispanic students – Wirepoints Press Conference

ABC 7, FOX 32, Telemundo, Univision and WBBM joined Wirepoints at our press conference in front of Pilsen’s Benito Juarez High School, where 85% of students graduate despite just 4% of them being proficient in reading, to cover Wirepoints’ new special report: “Chicago Public Schools fails its Hispanic students: Only 17 of every 100 read at grade level.”

Wirepoints President Ted Dabrowski was joined by Jonathan Serrano, a former candidate for state representative (IL-03), former CPS employee, and community leader on the city’s west side and Rob Cruz, a parent advocate, former school board member and candidate for Congress (IL-06).
