Blogging the budget...

Tonight is the first of a series of public meetings on the Philadelphia School District's 2011-12 budget. Philadelphia schools reporter Kristen Graham will be live blogging (right here) and Tweeting from the meeting, which will be held at Meredith Elementary in South Philly from 6 to 8 p.m. "Once something is cut, it's incredibly difficult to get back," one district mom said.
