Chicago Union Teacher
The Chicago Union Teacher is published eight times a year (three times a year in print). The Chicago Union Teacher is the official publication of the Chicago Teachers Union, which is the exclusive bargaining agent for teachers, counselors, librarians, clinicians and paraprofessional and school-related personnel in the Chicago Public Schools—both district-run schools and unionized charter schools.
