Why didn't you mention the Phila. School District? My guess is that they were the the strongest voice in determining the catchment area. I don't think anyone knows exactly how much input Penn had in drawing the boundaries for the school. Singling them out and bashing them for it seems unfair in the least and continues a perception that Penn is behind every (perceived) mistake or problem in the neighborhood. I thought we were beginning to see things in a more nuanced and informed way. No?
for a nuanced look, see how neatly the catchment area overlaps with the spruce hill's proposed historic district:
