Schools Closing

        Philadelphia superintendent identifies schools he intends to close by Kristen A. Graham. This article is about how the superintendent is shutting down school to save money!

 In the story it said "overall, 22 elementary, four middle, and 11 high schools, in nearly every neighborhood of the city, would close if Hite's recommendation are adopted by the school reform commission, which will vote on the shutdowns in March.
                  Money is a problem in the story it said, "the district recently borrowed 300 million just to pay bills and issue paychecks through the end of the year. It faces an equally tough picture for the next year, and if one action built into its five-year plan doesn't happen, dominoes would start to tumble.
          In the story it also said they have two goals it said, "boosting academics throughout the district and ensuring its long-term financial viability."
          
              I personally think it's not right to send good students to bad schools, because the bad student will distract the good ones when they try to do their work, but some of the good students techniques will rub off on the bad apples.

          I remember a time when my cousin got send to west but this is when west was really bad, and he couldn't take all the noise so he couldn't learn so he gave up and start getting in trouble. In conclusion I'm not like that school are getting shut down but if it save money then maybe it's the right thing to do.
