Dissolved

Still at the mercy of Republican assholes who largely control the budget, but at least there is local accountability now (including the local portion of the budget).

The Philadelphia School Reform Commission is on its way to extinction.

The state-devised panel, the ruler of the School District for 16 years, voted to dissolve itself Thursday night, declaring that the era of distress for the city’s schools was over.

The era of distress was when the SRC controlled it. You can judge which way causation goes.

Education is perhaps the biggest local issue and it was one nobody could vote on.
