Psst. Wanna know a secret?
Not many people know about it, but one of the easiest ways to follow this blog is to sign up for a free daily email.
You'll get one email every afternoon (Monday-Friday). It's easy, it's free.
Sometimes you'll see new entries before they're officially posted - a little head start on the rest of the crowd.
But mostly it's just easier than remembering to check the site all the time.

I grew up near Roscoe & Halsted in the 1970s, left for college and moved back in 2000, started this blog in 2005 (first on my own, then with Catalyst, and now with ChicagoNow). My dad went to Senn. I went to Near North Montessori and Parker. Since 2006 I've been living in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn -- the Wicker Park of New York City. I have another education blog called This Week In Education that focuses on school reform trends at the national level.
