Thousands of students are back in classrooms, but many more are still learning remotely.
On Monday, 37,000 Chicago Public Schools students returned to their classrooms for the first time since schools were shut down nearly a year ago. The return comes after weeks of debate between the school district and Chicago Teachers Union over how to safely reopen schools — but some are still arguing for improvements to remote learning.
