Supertintendent Linda Yonke, left, cuts the ribbon Friday for a new daycare center for teachers' children.

In exchange for their day care center, teachers will work two extra days without pay this year -- a $450,000 benefit, the district says. But instructors won't be in classrooms with kids. Instead, they'll be in meetings with each other -- so-called professional development days.

There will be six of those this year instead of the usual four. CBS

I believe Winnetka (on suburban Chicago’s North Shore) is one of the top ten wealthiest suburbs in the country. This doesn’t surprise me. Move on, nothing to see here.......

Oh oh! I see it coming! Government regulations for all day care centers. Communist countries like to get them while still in diapers!

“In exchange for their day care center, teachers will work two extra days without pay this year...” I knew this was coming: “But instructors won’t be in classrooms with kids. Instead, they’ll be in meetings with each other — so-called professional development days.”
