Chicago Public Schools are back in session. Chalkbeat Chicago's Samantha Smylie and Northwestern professor and author Arionne Nettles join host Jacoby Cochran to discuss first week of classes, challenges facing the district, and CPS’s restraint and timeout compliance. We are also discussing the White Sox’s wild week and a new West Loop weed fest!
