At the June 2017 board meeting of Noble charter schools in Chicago, the board refused to negotiate a neutrality agreement during a union organizing campaign. Teachers (represented by ChiACTS Local 4343 / AFT) said that such an agreement would assure a "fair, neutral process by which educators could have conversations about a union without intimidation or interference.” Joining with the teachers were parents who were upset by Noble’s draconian discipline measures, excessive expulsions of students, and teacher turnover; a strong union would give teachers a voice against such policies.
