    IS THIS A FUNCTIONAL SCHOOL?

    overcrowded classrooms and split grade classes

    only one guidance counselor for schools over600 students

    NO guidance counselors for schools under 600

    students (the majority of schools) one nurse per 1,500 students

    NO full-time librarians

    minimal safety staff (two aides per school)

    sports and music only until January

    ZERO dollars for books and supplies

    Our kids wont be safe andcant get the education they deserve.

    How did this happen?Governor Corbett cut one BILLION dollars from educationfunding two years ago leaving our schools with a massivedeficit. Now, hes holding onto $45 million dollars in federalmoney promised to our schools until he gets huge concessionsfrom the teachers union. Students need that money NOW.

    TELL OUR POLITICIANS:

    Its not enough to open schools.

    Their jobs arent done until they guarantee the safetyAND education of every student.

    Fund our schools and restore essential staff.

    Work together to fairly fund Philly schools TODAY.
