Pennsylvania Schools Face Debt Crisis and Possible Closures
The state faces a massive funding shortfall with school districts owing 43 million to teachers and expenses plus 82 million owed to districts, while transportation costs add 14 million. Leaders warn that Chester and Bedford schools may close if funds do not arrive by January, and many districts could follow. Senate Republicans approve 110 million in tax anticipation notes to cover debts as state real estate values cap borrowing power, with high value property concentrated in Philadelphia and industrial areas.
