I went to NewsWorks website to read a story on Jim Kenney's victory!! Congratulations Jim!!
Here's what the former School Reform Commission (SRC) Chair, Bill Green, had to say regarding question #1 on the ballot about the elimination of the SRC:
"Regarding the SRC-abolishment ballot question, he said it would be "disastrous" to have a mayor and school district run by the teachers union."
So, I'm guessing it would have been better if we had a mayor and school district run by billionaires from Montgomery County!
What concerns me most is that this guy, Green, is a member of the governing body of our schools.
GRRRRR YYYUUUUCKKK BLAAAAAA UGGGGHHH!!!!
This just underscores the need for an elected body (whether partial or full---that can be debated) that is responsive to the people of Philadelphia, NOT big money or people who make STUPID statements like that!
Some call me "Flem"
