Elementary students on Far South Side hold mock trial over custody of class fish

There was something fishy happening at Wendell Smith Elementary on the Far South Side on Friday, and the situation gave Chicago Public Schools (CPS) students a lesson in the legal process.

❤❤❤❤. Great learning. But if he hadn't took care of the forgotten fish, it would be RIP fish. So I think it was a unfair sentence. But the fish won't be forgotten no more😂😂😂, but should the teacher who left the fish to die get anything 🤔 😉 that was abandonment in first degree , with intent to kill. 😂😂😂 love this learning in schools, ❤

Getting the kids ready for when they go to court for shooting and killing each other.

That's not nice

[@thefucrew9865]

@@ginfromdablock , why ???
Because it's true ???
All of you Liberals and Democrats always try to hide from admitting the truth.
Need proof ???
Look at all of the wrought iron fences around Black and Hispanic communities.
While being a divider amongst your own kind, your own neighbors... it looks like they are preparing you for prison.
Enjoy !!!
