What Chicago Kids Want Us to Know

from City Cast Chicago · host City Cast

Happy Teacher Appreciation Week! Earlier this year, we visited the Carole Robertson Center for Learning at their Albany Park site to talk to teachers and students about why after-school programs are critical to families across the city. On the center’s 50th anniversary, we wanted to revisit the conversation we had with these Chicago kids about what they want adults to know.
