Teachers’ strike leaving you stranded for child care?

Having strike-stranded kids at home does not have to impact your attendance and success at school.  Check out the following creative child care options:

•          Children First is a program through the Chicago Public School system with various sites around the city that will keep students in the classroom during the strike. Visit cps.edu/ChildrenFirst

•          Lakeshore Sport & Fitness has extended their kids’ summer camp sessions through the strike. Visit Lakeshoresf.com.

•          Get free curricula online through home-schooling sites or groups.

•          Ask other parents to help take turns watching the children.
