A suburban Chicago school district has laid off all 31 of its custodians. The district is implementing temporary cleaning measures until a new provider starts next week. Union representatives and some parents have raised concerns about the effectiveness of these temporary arrangements. Teachers may be assisting with limited cleaning tasks, and students might be asked to clean up after themselves. The union has filed complaints alleging labor law violations.
