WATCH: Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson defines how he measures the success of Chicago Public Schools under his administration. “I personally don’t give a lot of attention to grades. I don’t…My responsibility is not simply to grade the system, but to fund the system. That’s how I’m ultimately going to grade whether or not our public school system is working. Based upon the investments that we make for the people who rely upon it.” This ideology is why Douglass High School is seeing a larger budget increase than any other school in the Chicago Public Schools system this year. The numbers are mind-blowing. 🔴 Douglass was originally built for 888 students in the Austin neighborhood, where Johnson lives. 🔴 Just 35 students attend Douglass today, meaning the school is 96% empty. Of those 35 students, 64% were chronically absent last year. 🔴 The new CPS budget expands Douglass staff from 23 to 32 employees (1.09 students per employee). 🔴 The school already spends more than $68,000 per student per year (excluding capital outlay and debt service). That’s enough money to send every Douglass student to one of the most elite private high schools in the country while saving extra money for college tuition. 🔴 Student achievement data has been redacted for Douglass, most likely due to too few student records. If fewer than 10 students are tested, the math/reading proficiency rate is redacted for student privacy purposes. It appears fewer than 10 students are enrolled in 11th grade at Douglass.

“Capitalism is not a profit system, it is a profit and loss system, and the losses are more important than the profits.” —Milton Friedman But the US education system runs on the exact opposite principle. No failure allowed. Instead of closing or losing funding, failing schools get more taxpayer money, more administrators, and more programs. And bad teachers rarely face real consequences thanks to tenure and union protection. The “customers” (parents and kids) have almost no exit. Real per-pupil spending has nearly tripled since 1970 after inflation. NAEP scores flat or eroding in core skills for decades. PISA rankings middling at best, with math especially weak. Thomas Sowell diagnosed this in Inside American Education, asserting that the system is morally and intellectually bankrupt. It has turned into a propaganda operation more than an educator primarily pushing ideology, feelings, and self-esteem over knowledge and competence. With endless public money and zero market test, there is nothing forcing correction. Unions buy political protection so the failure machine keeps running. Friedman and Sowell both identified the same disease and the same cure, namely real competition and choice. Vouchers or education savings accounts let parents take the money and flee failure. Good schools grow, while bad ones finally face losses and must improve or die. Without the discipline of losses, mediocrity is subsidized forever. And the kids, especially in the worst districts, pay the permanent price. But that’s just the system working exactly as designed.
