No. Unfortunately, many private schools do not have unionization, but that's an excellent example of why unions aren't an anachronistic holdover and why they're still important.
That shows a major problem with the teachers union. The City of Chicago is broke, yet is forced to pay these teachers way higher than the going market rate because of the union. That in turn puts the city into greater debt, forcing them to raise property taxes on their citizens.
