WE Join PCAPS in calling for a one year Moratorium on School closings in Philadelphia.   The savings, if any, do not justify the chaos these closings will cause.  We need a rational, year long process to evaluate the impact and to look at alternative to closings.

The school district is ignoring the reality of what these closures do to our neighborhoods. Email your representative today and demand they stop this process immediately.

My kids walk to this school every day. Its part of the neighborhood and taking it away will just leave more boarded up buildings. Stop this now.

THEY DONT CARE ABOUT THE KIDS. Only the money. Shame on the school district.

Ridiculous to rush this. Needs more time. My nephew is already stressed about switching schools just let them finish the year where they are.
