Some of the Philadelphia schools on the chopping block will now remain open. The School District announced several changes altering William Hite’s plan to close 37 schools. Schools remaining open and not merging include Meade, Cooke, Duckrey, Morris, McCloskey, Lankenau, Gompers, Overbrook Elementary, AMY at James Martin and Strawberry Mansion High.

Drug testing will begin soon at St. Joseph’s Prep schoolin Philadelphia this year. In an effort to educate its students and combat overall teen drug use, St. Joe’s will randomly test 20 students per month by testing a single strand of their hair. Some students oppose the new policy saying it goes too far. Parents and Mayor Nutter, a St Joe’s alum think it’s in the best interest of students.

Weather
Showers will end overnight. 28 in Center City.
