Chicago teachers go on strike
More than 32,500 teachers and other staff walked off the job Thursday in Chicago, canceling classes for 300,000 students in the nation's third-largest school district.
At the heart of the dispute is class sizes and resources rather than pay, with teachers saying they want more social workers, nurses and librarians for their students.
