It is October 13th and the students at Benjamin Franklin High School and the Science Leadership Academy in Philadelphia still do not have a place to go to school. There are few jobs I’d LESS like to have than running the School District of Philadelphia with its infinite difficulties and huge responsibilities. Still, when kids start school and then have their school building promptly closed with no place firm to go, parents, students and public have a right to demand better.
