Good work, Frank. We'll make a Philadelphia public-school parent out of
you yet.
Speaking as a parent who is already walking this walk, I'm telling you
the system is complicated. I'm telling you anyone who says it's simple
-- is simple!
I can't tell you the details without tedious research I'm not paid to do
(that's why I encourage you to do this work, because you seem to have
time on your hands). But if you don't do this work, there's no reason to
believe anything you write makes sense on this subject.
I've been required to study a deluge of information on the School
District for years, because I'm a parent. This is a late and amateur
interest of Frank's at best, because you're not a parent. I encourage
you, and everyone else on UC-list, to spend at least a dozen hours
learning what we parents have had to study, before you publish your
preachments on our children's lives. If you haven't done our job, you
won't figure it out through google. Heed those of us with experience.

I'll pass but if you would like to do that research yourself, you
might start here:
