Crim has withdrawn his name from consideration for the $56,000 administrative job in Chicago. Crim said he was “flattered” to be among the five finalists for the school superintendent’s job in Chicago, but he felt “I should remain here.” Crim said he went to Chicago to interview for the job since that was his hometown and he felt he should consider the offer.

If Crim had gone to Chicago, it would have meant a $16,000 raise and he would have been in charge of some 540,000 students instead of the 85,000 he now supervises.
