Once Again, a New Record

You didn't expect Rahm to take a back seat to Daley, did you?

• Chicago Public Schools officials on Wednesday touted an upswing in first day attendance at most schools this year.
  First day attendance numbers on Tuesday rose to 94.7 percent from 92.9 percent last year. CPS officials said it was the highest first day attendance since the district began using a new system four years ago to track students on their first day back.

And it just happened to be during Rahm's first term! The man is a miracle worker - why, just the other day, he promised to make our pensions disappear along with almost $200 million in the police budget.
