School closings announcement to be broadcast online

The release of the proposed facilities master plan at today’s School Reform Commission will be broadcast online from the district’s website.

The SRC meeting begins at 3 p.m., but the much-anticipated facilities plan will be unveiled around 5 p.m. It will be streamed live for the first time from http://www.phila.k12.pa.us/. The plan is expected to detail planned closings, consolidations, replacements and grade changes.

The district says the plan is just a proposal and there will be several opportunities for community input in the same vein as the School Advisory Councils for renaissance schools. The SRC is expected to vote on a final proposal in early 2012.

I will be posting live tweets from today’s meeting. You can follow me @elraei.
