They held that much ballyhooed “summit” in Harrisburg yesterday to focus on the financial condition of the Chester Upland School District.
Not surprising is that everyone agrees the district is in fire fiscal straits. Even more surprising is that no one seems to know what exactly to do about it.
You can read our story here. And an editorial on what the future of Chester Upland might look like here.
Gov. Tom Corbett and Sen. Dominic Pileggi, R-9, of Chester, have pledged to keep the schools open.
That’s going to be easier said than done.
In the meantime, we will revisit the subject tonight with our live-stream Internet broadcast, “Live From the Newsroom.”
Joining us will be Chester Upland Assistant Superintendent Thomas Persing here in the office. And on the phone from Harrisburg we’ll have state Rep. Thaddeus Kirkland, D-159, of Chester.
Should be interesting. Tune in at 7 at delcotimes.com.
