Episode description
The WNBA is investigating racial slurs directed at Chicago Sky star Angel Reese by fans during the Sky’s season opener loss against the Indiana Fever on Saturday. Illinois preschool providers say they're struggling after the Trump administration closed half of the federal offices for the early childhood education program Head Start. The dust storm that swept across the Chicago area on Friday is believed to be the first of its kind to reach Chicago since the 1930s.
Plus, an investigation by WBEZ’s Sarah Karp in partnership with Chalkbeat finds that one in four high school students missed more than a month of school last year.
