400 students switch schools again
For one more day, 400 Bayard Taylor Elementary School students are having their classes at Roberto Clemente Middle School. On Monday, bricks falling from an exterior wall prompted concerns about the building’s structural integrity, so the students were bused to the middle school, less than a mile away in North Philadelphia.
