Public schools in Philadelphia, which is the 8th largest school district in the United States, will begin a return to local control on July first, following approval this week by Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf and his Education Secretary. The state of Pennsylvania took over the schools in Philadelphia, in 2001 following a series of financial crises. The state appointed a School Reform Commission (SRC) to run the district.
