Culpability for 'Crumbling Prisons'

Beyond Governor Rauner calling CPS schools 'crumbling prisons,' a faulty statement at best, the phrase begs the question...okay, if the schools are 'crumbling' and are identified as 'prisons,' then who is culpable and what is been done about these conditions?

These aren't questions posed merely to lay blame at the feet of the Governor or anyone else. They are raised with the hope of correcting the problems that do exist within various CPS schools.

To ignore the problem(s) and to do nothing about them is nothing short of a dereliction of duty. Crumbling structures can't be tolerated. The safety of children and staff is at stake not to mention the quality of the learning environment. A poor structure certainly might raise flags of concern relative to water and food safety among other issues.

'Crumbling prisons' they aren't but, many schools are certainly in need of repair. If the problems exist those in charge of fixing them better get to work.
